Here is a video of me washing it with our pressure washer. Handles it pretty well. Also shows some of the colorshift.

Would love to see that in person, that color shifting is pretty wild. Is pressure washing the best way to clean a dipped finish?

I would like to bring it out to shows across TX, maybe even the neighboring states. Quickest way for sure. There is a soap that DYC sells that attatches onto the pressure washer. Just spray it on, scrub it down and wash the rest off. After it is dry I spray on the DYC Dip Coat for protection. It acts kind of like wax. This finish is pretty easy to keep clean. Everything comes right off with the soap they sell.

Nice fit, and they compliment your G very well, although a color shifting blue barrel would be pretty tasty
Well Done Kevin.

Thanks! These were actually ordered for a client and I decided to "test fit" them on my car before he came in to pick them up. Gram Lights are back on. Also got in a set of HRE's for a Q50 that I might be able to throw on there for photos.

So finally got around to installing my rear diffuser. I've had this since the end of march. Still need to trim the side pieces and then it'll be complete. Getting ready for SlammedEnuff this weekend in Dallas, TX.

Ever consider a very light coat of tail tint? The red pops out too much.

Agreed^^, check out my GTR DIY, and I can send the cutouts if you're interested

Also that chrome window trim seems to be begging to go black, so here's that too, lol

I have, but never took the time to see how it's done.

Can I get the cut outs? I will probably do this next time I dip my car, I tend to just build up parts and let them sit until I decide to do it.

I will need to order some black vinyl now. Looks good!

Thanks! Will get more pictures up, I got the side pieces mounted up last night. Not much trimming needed actually. Just a little bit to clear the bumper.
