Default Plastdip SC + small shoot with friends

So a about a week or two ago I went on a lil photo shoot with my friends. This is my first using my camera so the pics are not that great.

Also I plastidiped my whole car, I believe I'm the first SC to do it.





and a solo shot on my car.


Yes I know I need to buff/polish my hood, and I have another fender to replace that one.

I hate the plasti-dip trend.... Shiny > matte/flat finishes all day. The wheels look nice though!

^^^^^ i agree ... sc's look great with the city lights dancing off the paint. The only time i've seen flat black anything look good is on an old school model-a rat rod.

Ur wheels look vuuury nice... Please dont plasti those ^_^
