Hey guys I havnt posted pics in awhile. My autobahn front is off, now I have on a WWP evo-r style lip. Wheels have been plastidipped, then professionally painted BMW Sepang Bronze, finished with a Matte clear. Thought Id post a pic up from the iphone..

 

You plasti dipped the wheels and then painted them?

 

I wasnt sure If I was going to keep the look..the paint shop is a friend's so it only cost me the paint which was nothing.
That plastidip is strong stuff, I have had my wrangler wheels painted for a long time now without any issues or peeling. As of now, I can keep them like this for as long as I want, and when I want to go back to silver I can spend an hour and peel it all off.

I may actually powdercoat them this color down the road

 

If I'm understanding this correctly, because you plasti dip your wheels first, you can just peel off the paint job? Even though they were painted and clear coated after?

 

that is correct. 100% clean, the stuffs amazing.

 

That's awesome! I knew you could peel off plasti dip, but I didn't you still could even after paint n clear coat. That's really cool!

 

a co worker of mine just plasti dipped his whole FJ cruiser, pretty funny..it took 15 cans ($75). Looks like a basic flat black paintjob

 

Plasti dip looks like **** up close, from a distance it looks cool. Kind of pointless on an off road rig too.

 

Who owns a wwp with bronze battles...?

 

yeah they have 20mm spacers all around. im saving up to get them rebarrelled/repainted in a couple months to make them more aggressive!

heres another pic from the same shoot. still working on the rest of the pictures.

 

A lot of these car forums seem to be going crazy over it.. Im not a fan really, except that allows me to remove the paint if I'm looking for a change. It's good for small parts, I wouldn't do body panels or roofs/hoods like some people do though, I've seen it before and it looks pretty bad

 

...Konig, those pics are outstanding

 

thank you! the huge rain puddle made for some pretty neat pictures =]

 

It nevered rain in southern california...remember that song?...now you know its not true. lol

Don't really post too many pics but what the heck... Here's a photo I took on the way home from work yesterday. I may post more next week from DGRR.



Few more:


Washed the wheels recently, that's why there's a slight rust ring.

 

Nice!

Got that right. We were at the shop, he had another set of wheels/tires for street.
