I really don't understand the mirrors, but I am also a fan of them being body color

the idea was to mimic the the GT3RS. the porsches with the wheels, and mirrors the same color. i didnt want to go wild, and figured since the wheels are gunmetal, id try it.

ehhh, the 5.0 badges look tacky one color. Not having the red dot. Car would look much better with some glossy 5.0 badges on the side instead!

First of all, very nice car, love that color! But I would not plasti dip anything on my car, leave that stuff for kids and ricers. Why spend 30k on a car and go at it with a $5 can of spray. JMO

why spend 30k on a car and put walmart tint on the headlights thusly reducing light output?

we are have different likes and dis likes. the best part of Dip is that is easily removable at any time. you can experiment with looks and no harm done, take it off.

haha touché, but tint is not and never will be "rice", plus I was bored and experimenting and ended up deciding against it. The tint was on one of my headlights for all of about 7 minutes.lol

Wasn't trying to bash you dude, calm down. You asked for opinions and that's what I gave you.

Hmm, my wheels r plastidip as a temp until I get some F14s. I also did the rear lower and GT faux cap. Looks awesome and it hasn't come off.

If its done right its pretty sweet. I'm assuming you haven't seen it in person :??: I guess I'm a ricer now :banana:

I never said you or OP were ricers, it is just my opinion that plasti dip is very very popular with the ricers.

whether its "rice" or not, just simple fact of seeing so much plasti dip in the tuner scene makes me automatically associate the stuff with "ricers"
