PlastiDip a Car

[Gizmo]

So on wednesday I am taking my car to get Plasti Dipped because I can't warrant the prices they charge for wrapping a car..

Any experience with it? Is it any good? I know its lifespan is around 3 years where as wrapping can last much longer.. Otherwise the 2 look identical to me?

What u getting dipped ? the whole car or just some items on it ?

 

[Gizmo]

The entire car. Its a champagne colour currently. But want it White.. I also like that fact that it protects the paint etc..

 

[Willyza]

I hear about it but never seen it
so will be interesting seeing pic when its finished

before and after pics?

a mate did the wap, but like u said its costly

Plasdti dip is cheaper but doesn't last as long as a wrap, I doubt you'll get 3 years, as it starts looking scratched with stone chips and being exposed to the elements after a year, although it's much easier to remove and doesn't damage your paintwork.
Also check with your licensing department if you need to update your license with the change of colour.

You must do downpipes also, then you can enjoy those 6 cylinders in all its glory.

No you must not... Don't listen to him @Gizmo it's fast enough

 

[Noddy]

Ha ha. Downpipes will make it slower, but louder. Really...
