I did the chin spoiler. Looks way better than having little rock chips all over.






This stuff goes on smooth, its self leveling and does not get more adhered over time. We have a friend with a DSM that has been dipped for almost 2 years, and still looks great. Occasionally he redoes a panel, and it always peels off no problem. It goes on smooth, and looks NOTHING like spray paint. It may look like crap if not prepped correctly, but then again...what wont? All this stuff needs is a smooth clean surface. If your car has **** in the clear coat, clay-bar it, let it dry and spray this on. It takes 5-6 light coats, and looks awesome in the end. The over spray is a pain, yes...However with better than toddler patience, it comes off no problem. You can rub off like dust, re clay bar, windex it, etc etc etc. This stuff is too easy to screw up...

Yes, it does.

Funny how many "purists" there are on this forum who in r.l. drive cars that don't meet the standards they apply to others.

I just found this today (recommended by FB) I hadn't really considered it before, but some of the cars don't look too bad...

If you do the blue you are just out a few bucks and you can peel it off to try again.

The plates simply a nickname i've had for about 10 years, and whats so wrong with the white? I think it gives the car a clean pop to it.
