Appearance: How to/Review: Plasti-Dip Evo Mod (Lots of Photos)
i attempted to mine today, the cross bar turned out like crap, guess i sprayed too much and it dried clumpy. it was really runny.i dont really like how it dries a flat black.. undecided if im going to do my wheels with this stuff..
yeah from a distance is right lol and i wanna make sure its easy to remove later on. i did one of my wheels today, came out decent, gotta get the technique down so it can come out smoother
yeah i sprayed the wheels while they were still on the car but i didnt have any issues with the plasti-dip running. the possibility of it was definitely on my mind but in the end everything was fine, no runs at all

i honestly dont remember how many cans i used, i wanna say i had 4 though and used whatever was left for the evo mod
also, this is how i did the wheels, i got the card idea from a thread on this site a while ago and it actually works rather well...

looks like it'd be easier/faster jsut to take the wheels off

haha yeah i was thinkin that too rather than squeezing plastic bags between the wheel spokes, etc etc. when i do my wheels i'm just gonna take em off.
doin the evo mod today, was gonna do the wheels today too but the local hardware store only had 1 can of plasti-dip so im just doin the bumper. i'll take some before/after pics and post em up.

i think i too will start with the evo mod, and the side skirts and the back
So, after almost an entire winter, two trips to cleveland and back, a ski trip and countless runs through the laser wash, the plasti-dip held up great.
Then my latest venture to Chicago.
The plasti-dip on the grill and lip held up like a champ.. Too bad my hood and fenders didn't. A-hole cut me off on the interstate in traffic and couldn't stop in time.
A fresh new OEM bumper with no license plate bracket, and probably going to go another route and steer away from the evo mod. I most certainly will still be using some plasti-dip though haha, stuff's too good to not use somewhere.
Oh I also used it in my cup holders, which is ownage for holding beverages more effectively.

cup holders? haha i would do that for sure if i didnt just get the cup holder LED kit. but i did the evo mod and it turned out pretty sweet, tho my car is dark so its hard to see unless light is directly on it
I just want to see drew's badass ride he's be wrenching on all winter.
badass? it almost seems a bit, sarcastic.
