  • Plasti dip or Vinyl wrapping?

    Would like to get a few people thoughts on what would be best.

    I'm looking to get a few bits done and after looking at both options on line i can't really decide what would be best. just wondered if anyone has had either of them done and if so what would be there opinion.

    any advise would be greatly appreciated!!

      I guess it depends on what you're planning on wrapping/spraying.

      What're your plans?

        thanks norwich! i noticed that you had done the top of the grill matt black, was thinking of doing this orange maybe? just a thought at the moment, just wanted some advice.

        if all goes well i might look at doing a few other bits too but nothing that is too big.

        Also norwich, do you know what colour the roof is as it would look better if it can match that as close as possible?

          If your planning to change the grill colour, plasti dip is the way to go. Very easy to DIY

            Okay great, sounds good to me! thanks for your help so far! just wait to see if i can get some that matches the colour of the roof.

            Does anyone know as well if you can get a gloss finish or are they only matt?

                      If i were to use plasti dip to do something like that, would you take the parts out or just tape round where you dont want it?

                        I took mine apart to spray black but if I were to do it again would just tape around. Check out the vids at https://www.dipyourcar.com lots of helpful tips. Have fun!

                            I also did some other stuff at the same time so can not say for just the front trim. Would guess 1 would be enough no way more than 2.
