plastidipped car?

Has anybody plastidipped an entire cobalt? Just curious,would like to see what it'd look like. I searched and all I really found was wheels, the evolution mod, and I see where one forum member had done their Hood. My car is black and been thinking about doing a matte black plastidip on the entire car for the winter. I wonder how much it'd cost and how much it'd take. I've also seen bids online of other cars done. Any pics would be greatly appreciated.

I would do black like you want to instead of white. My buddy did his accord in white and he quickly changed it after a week because it got wayy to dirty and hard to clean. He spend $175 on the PlastiDip, took 12 cans....But the nice thing about PlastiDip is, it peals off, so you can honestly do any color and just clear over it and it will still peal off in the end, but look like a good paint job..

Ya the roof black would look good. I know a lot of people that do the black roof/hood/trunk or just the roof and it looks awesome. Some even do a cf wrap on the roof since it's so easy and flat. Good luck with whatever you decide!

Just a heads up, the glossifier shines it up a bit but it won't turn out glossy like you would think

Yeah you should just spend the extra money and shoot a couple coats of clear or something to protect it for a while since your spending the money anyways.

Yeah I mean, it's PlastiDip..It's going to peal. Spend the extra money and clear it to make it last even longer and not peal.
