finally decided on rims and tires. I wish id have ordered 37's instead of 35's but I wasn't sure id have the clearance...I do have a cognito suspension which gives me a little bit of a lift.

 

Ive used plastidip on my wheels and painted the front grill with regular black paint. I like the added black to the wheels. thinking about taking them to a paint shop and having them done.

thx to everyone who posted info about plastidip, I read all the posts before trying it. so far loving it!

 

plastidip rules. I've dipped my entire H2

Why have a shop paint your wheels black if the plastdip works for you? I've dipped many vehicles rims and I've never had a problem yet, everything thinks they are stock black rims as well. and IF I were to ever get a tear or scratch I'd just rip it off and spray a couple new layers! Can't beat 20$ to spray all 4 rims with 4-5 coats.

 

@accely did you plastidip your taillights too? If yes how many coatings....thanks

 

Accely, your post is the one that made me defiantly decide to plastidip my wheels. after seeing your results I was sold on using it.
ill see how the wheels hold up before I decide to have them painted or reuse the plistidip.

I also did my taillights with the "smoke" plastidip. they aren't as dark as I want but maybe a few more coats.

 

Plastidip isn't good for lights since it's not translucent. You should use something like rustoleum light tint. 2-3 coats is just right and it's also what I use for lights.

 

heading into town tomorrow. will pick up the rustoleum light tint.

thx!

 

blacked out most of my lights, need to do the roof markers yet. I added a brush guard and a couple of fog lamps. ive decided they are way to small so I ordered a pair of 5" square CREE LEDs and a 20" Cree light bar. as soon as they show up ill get them mounted and post another pic.

 

What headlights are those, price, and where'd you get them?

 

they are made by "truchlite" Part# 07370. not sure on cost, i got them from a buddy that works for the military. they are the new LED's being putting in thier vehicles. i actually had to cut and hard wire them in.
they are BRIGHT!!! once i get my fogs and light bar installed ill post a pic like your avatar.
