How is the finish when u painted the whole car? The last car I've seen with a plastidip paint job looked like stucco on the wall hahaha just wondering if yours turned out with a better finish lol

Not really a fan of plastic dipped wheels, but the XXRs do look pretty good? JMO plastic dip looks best in the interior...just sayin

+1 on that, I don't know why you would wanna do it ever. I would rather leave my messed up stock wheels alone than plastidip it. It always looks tacky no matter what.

You guys are doing some fantastic work! I own a side business that sells wheel paint kits and I'd love to feature some of these pics in our gallery. If any of you are interested, shoot me a pm. We are just about to expand our product line to Plasti-Dip as well. And for all you haters of the spray, you'd be very surprised at some of the high-end customers we get. Aside from Lexus drivers, we have Porsches and lots of 2012 vehicles. It really is a great option for some of us.

pastidip is great if you have the tire mounted on the wheel already and want a quick change for an event. i wouldnt use it as a form of changing the out look on the car for long. just doesnt seem to last that long in my mind. however im a big fan of painting wheels. even more so because i buy cheap ugly wheels and paint the **** out of them into funky colors just to get crazy looks.
