It should be illegal to plasti dip white balts. Good job on it though.

Went up to the Ice Cream Cruise, was REALLY surprised to see not only another sedan, but a yellow one.

Unicorn convention, we even raced eachother twice at MAM.

Thanks bud!

I'd say go for it. It doesn't take a whole lot of practice to figure out how to get it smooth.
The spray gun makes us look good haha

I agree. Just take your time and do a few tests before spraying the whole car and you will be fine!

I used the gunmetal grey as a base coat then the white over top, for white they say it sprays too thin over paint but if u do another coat of dip underneath it sticks and covers better.

I was thinking about going. If would have gone it would have made 3 yellow balts but mine is a coupe.

Should it also be illegal to modify the suspension and the wheel setup also?

Or should we keep our engines at stock power levels?

To each their own, man.

When u do it the right way, ie using a gun and not with rattle can, it turns out just fine and after a bit of practice it lays as smooth as paint and u can't tell it's dip and not paint. If u ever get a chance check out the forums at dipyourcar.com some of the custom colors and pearls these guys are using are insane.
