^^^ Dunno as I haven't done it yet.

I may try this as well. The weather in socal is very mild. I just want to see how it hols up.

On another note, I have now re-done my grille where the black center is spray on truck bed liner to match the parts of my lip that were getting chipped. That stuff is strong, and is working great so far. Plasti-dip goes on smooth, truck bed liner is more permanent and gives a textured finish.

Sweet, can't wait to see pics.

kagenmateer · 09-06-2011, 09:45 PM

I need to snap some...

**Dookie** · 09-07-2011, 07:19 AM

I used truck bedliner on my wheelbarrow, and that chit is very durable and long lasting.

I really like the red on black theme. One thing that might be a nice addition, how about painting those brake calipers red? That would really bring it together, imo.

Thx. I want to do the calipers in black with red Subaru logo

**Dookie** · 02-03-2012, 09:14 AM

That would look good too.

subidoo · 02-03-2012, 06:21 PM

Hmmm, I like that. I like that real good...

**Dookie** · 02-04-2012, 07:00 PM

Man, I really need to paint the wheels and do a little offset to bring them out a little.

subidoo · 02-04-2012, 07:43 PM

I'd like to too, but there aint much to do with a silver paint job. Boring...
Got any ideas?

blackfang · 02-05-2012, 04:51 AM

They look pretty good man.

What does it feel like to the touch? Rubbery? Slick? Painted? I'd consider something like this just to change it up a bit.

**Dookie** · 02-06-2012, 07:29 AM

Plasti-Dip feels simi-smooth, simi-rubbery. What's nice about it is cleaning it with protected products such as Armor All, it brings out a nice shine that last a long time.

The other nice thing is, if you don't like it, you can just peel it right off.

Feels kinda like the hard rubber grips on gym equipment. Mostly smooth, but slightly porous.
