hi i just bought a 3rd gen gs300 this past week and my first mod would be to plasti dip the emblems and chrome trim. i have the blue/grey color


i tried searching but couldnt find the pictures i was looking for if anyone can find pics please let me know

It may just be me, but why not just try it and post pics? It's not that expensive and if you don't like it, it's removable.

:thumb up: did you take off the front grill or did you just tape it?

what do you mean by window sills? the chrome that goes around the window? I had mine wrapped with vinyl

yeah i like the look of that. they charge a lot here for the vinyl wrap. i also like the look of you roof! did you consider wrapping the chrome at the bottom of the doors?

didnt think about that. i wanted to do the window trim because of the dark tint and the black roof. didnt want a chrome strip to break that up so i just had it wrapped

Your in CA I can't believe they charge that much to have a small piece of chrome wrapped. What prices were you quoted?

Either way IMO plasti dip looks good at a distance but I don't like the texture it leaves up close. You probably wouldn't notice it on a grill or emblems but I'm sure you could tell a difference on the window strip. However like others said, its not expensive so by a bottle, plasti dip it and if you don't like the results you can always remove it.

i had a guy in san francisco quote me $200 for the chrome around the windows. we did my friends in platidip 2 times and for some reason keeps wrinkle where the paint meets at the bottom of the window.. id rather wrap it to keep it looking clean.
