Default Fun with plasti-dip

Messin around in the driveway with ways to tone down the overly short bus-y yellow. Well aware of how temporary this stuff is, and that's the idea. Gonna figure out what I like before doin anything more permanent. Guys at work call it A-Team-esque... Lol Tell me what y'all think.

Hmm the hood looks good, I'm torn on the sides though. I wonder how it would look with the entire rear done black-without the slant....

Looks good I hope it helps you settle on something more permanent. I was skeptical about the Plastidip but brothers are great! Mine has used Plastidip quite a lot so I polled him and ended up trying it out last weekend to de-chrome my mirrors until I can locate a black oem set of covers. Also did the air boxes looks great super easy to apply.

Yeah. I was rather impressed with how smoothly it laid down really.

I think it would look better if it was all black.

Oh, I totally agree. I couldn't stand to have yellow door jambs tho. Attempted the drivers door as a test and it didn't work out very well. Tends to peel pretty easily where the weatherstrip makes contact.

What are the two lights on the bumper? I never thought of that place for lighting, you don't need any brackets at all that's great. Do they put out any usable light?
