I hate you guys
Recently bought a brand new G37S coupe....black on black, 6MT, fully loaded. Loved the car.
Then you guys came along.... do this mod, do that mod... NO! I wont!! Its brand new, and I dont want to do anything that could hurt my new baby. I WONT DO IT!!!!
The last coat of my plasti dip will be dry in another few minutes....fully blacked out grill (including the Fuji), fully blacked out badging in the back, and gonna try to keep the red S showing. Wish me luck. Pics will be coming.

Ah, the plasti dip days. You say it looks great, you truly believe it. Everyone tells you it looks cheap and tacky, but no, you say NO, it's just how I like it. So you dip your emblems...slowly move on to bigger pieces...wheels, chrome spoiler..grille...and you go, "Damn, that looks good", f*$) the haters.
Slowly the plasti dip starts getting dirty so you clean it...you clean it till it's squeaky clean but a few days later it's dirty again.
Then...then one day...one day you get a painted part...and you realize...you realize all this time you were wrong but you won't admit it. You take a look at your plasti dipped wheels, and you say...damn...they were right.
And that, that is how it went for me. but seriously, lets see those pics

There's enough material on this post to make a short soap opera!
But yeah OP, that is how it starts, the little things first and just wait...next time you know, you're installing intakes and all kinds of things! FUN stuff, strongly recommend it

Had a friend stop by mid way through to check process....and we started talking exhaust, intakes and suspension. Gears are turning. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to remove tape, paper, etc..... pray for me.

^^ This!! Not to mention IPL Body Kit, Custom Head lights / Tail Lights, Full LED light change out, spacers, camber kits...the list goes on and on, there's always something else, but that's what makes it fun!

Tape off. ****ed up a couple of sections...so easy peel off, and redoing those now. This plasti dip is pretty amazing, and simple. Trying to leave the red S on the back...and that's a trick. Screwed it up the first time, but came close. Using a razor blade to help cut it away...but missed a part.
So quick touch up to that, one Fuji, and part of the grill....and I'll be done later. I looked at it as is though before peeling the bad parts. Going to look pretty bad ***.

I dont reccomend. Powdercoat/ paint and ull throw away those plasti dip cans the same way you bought it.
Plasti only looks good untill it gets dirty
