Is that really platidip coating your wheels? I looked it up after you mentioned it, and I read that it's supposed to last only a few weeks. If that is plastidip, how long has it lasted for you?

It's lasted about a year I think. It's probably about 4 coats on there...one can per tire. I touched up one spot in that whole time and all i did was use a razor to cut out the piece that was damaged and respray and you cannot tell. It covers pretty nicely without overspray lines.

I just replaced my tires so I will need to do some coverup again, but all-in-all its pretty damn good for only $25...and most people don't know it's plastidip.

Thanks man! I had a shop paint it and install it for me. If I remember correctly they had to perhaps shave a couple spots to make sure it fit properly. The two pieces that hang down on the rear of the boot had to be screwed down from behind but you cant see it. We tried first with 3M but it only held for a couple months. I know some people will gasp at putting a hole in the trunk lid but I am not one of those people. I think it looks great and aggressive and those havoc pieces get me a lot of looks and compliments. They aren't going anywhere!
