So I decided to change up a few things and have a little fun and dipped my car blue. It was a pretty fun project and quite inexpensive. Right now I'm just playing around with the colors and hues but right now I'm going to call the color Sky Blue. It is a custom mix that I came up with myself. Its not 100% complete have a few finishing touches to put on here and there. Also can't decide if I want to leave my wheels gunmetal or dip them white as well. I have more peeling to do it was late and just haven't had the time to finish peeling the fog lights and sidemakers. But overall I'm content with the outcome. The dip has so many possibilities, i can make it glossy, i can add flake, i can just change the color all together.













More pics coming, possibly even a shoot with my friends bagged and dipped 5.0
