Trying Something

What do you guys think? I put a black hat on my truck,also thinking of doing the fenders and running boards to complete the two tone look. Sorry the finish pics aren't that good,as you can see it was sunny when starting. Then it started pouring down, so I couldn't take it out for better pics. This is a product people are using to change the look of their cars and wheels, Plastidip,it peels off if you mess up or don't like it. Thanks for your comments,L8R ZFLASH

Looked at their website. I like the idea your going with here, you will have to keep us updated on its durability on the roof through normal driving and washes, etc. my only worry is if it peels off easily as your driving down the road and a piece gets cut by say a flying rock would the wind force start peeling it? I'd say if it's durable enough why not use it on other body pieces to protect them also. Keep us updated.

I've had it own the Vette for three weeks now with no issues,I used it on my front lip and mirrors to keep the bugs and rock chips away. Some people use it for a bra for road trips then take it off when home. It doesn't come off that easy,I had use goof off to help and it doesn't damage your paint or chrome.

Ok guys did a little more today and took some new pics. Incorporated the cab into the hood,front of the running boards into the rear fenders. Still learning with this stuff,the last two pics show how when peeling off the tape too fast it will mess it up. Overall very pleased with the look, just need to practice a little bit more. Thanks, L8R ZFLASH
