needs a drop obviously, but why not take some normal, non instagrammed pictures so we can see what it actually looks like.

The entire car? Plasti-Dip? Whoa.. Yeah, agreed with providing regular pictures. Im not a fan of Plasti-Dip. Easy way out for short term changes.

I kinda like matte black but Plasti-dip is horrible way to go about it IMO.

Wow.
How many cans did you have to use? How is it holding up?
Also, I realize you chose this route for a reason, but if matte black was your goal, y not just vinyl it?
Agree with everyone else, looks good but plastidip is just terrible?

I actually would't think he would do his whole car with rattle cans but who knows..
He probably used this kit here:
Dip your car
To the OP, I actually think it looks pretty good.

Ya, I honestly don't know much about PD. only form I knew it came in was the rattle cans and those small cans for dipping tools.
Either way...still plastidip

I think it looks ok...good even...but I gotta wonder...
What happens when people trade in these pasti dipped and vinyl wrapped cars???
What do the dealers do with them? Do they remove the "dip" and the "wrap", or do they sell them as is???
Hmmmmmmm...
I'm sure they will stick it to the person trading them in as a significant loss in value.

Oh I know what you mean....PlastiDip is the cheapest method for changing the color of your car but like you said...still PlastiDip.

Looks like it came out pretty clean. I assume this was done w/ some high volume spray application. Do they add some type of hardener to the P-dip? If not and it's the same form as normal P-dip wouldn't it be way too easy to scratch & peel?
