When it comes to how it looks, I love the two tone look on your ride. Glossy body paint and then matte black to contrast it. In person though, I feel plastidipping that big of a section might not look good depending on how even it is and the line between the plastidip and normal paint. Maybe it'll look good if you clear coat the plastidip sections? Idk, this is all in my head. Things look different on paper than real life lol

It's more noticeable with the black stripe on the hood lol

In all seriousness I've been tempted to plastidip, after the paint gets fixed up as I had some birds destroy my hood while I was away for a few days. Swirls all over it. I already tried to buff it out but it seems the previous paint job wasn't done so well.
