Plasti-dipped my wing!

Boredom and having three cans of plasti-dip in your garage can be a deadly combination, Figured I'd do it for funsies since I didn't care if I messed up cause you can peel it off and I'm going wingless soon anyways, taking off the blade was god awful, all of the bolts were rusted (florida ) and two were stripped

Got to drive around like a jdm-baller for a few days





Still a little wet



Finished product

A flat putty knife wrapped in cloth, and this automotive adhesive remover stuff I have, I cracked one of the end caps slightly but the plasti-dip covered it up

I found it really annoying to keep even over a large surface since its not exactly spray paint, my wing is actually the second try. I peeled off the first one, which was surprisingly satisfying, doing a whole car could be frustrating to make even
