Plasti-Dipped LE 10spokes...

After seeing everyone on this forum, Grrr8.net, G8board.com & recently ls1tech. I finally decided to plasti-dip the stock wheels, which ill be using as a protective coating while they lay in my parents garage. Wheels were put on for pics, so here we go...

Future Mods:
- Stock Headlights (or atleast the stock style off of ebay)
- Possibly tint the turn signals (not sure on this yet)
- GMMG Exhaust
- New Wheels (i do currently have some C5 DD from OEWheelsLLC but want something else)

EDIT: Pics have been edited a bit to get better color out of them. Camera was just a simple one i bought from wal-mart awhile back. So its nothing special lol

That "Plasti-Dip" just peels right off correct? I may try that out on my SS 10-spokes for a new look until I replace them . how much did it cost to do this?

Correct! This stuff just peels right off, but be sure to give it a nice coat otherwise it'll be a pain to remove. It's a bit different from paint and does pack on pretty easy. So take your time when doing this.

It's about $6 bucks or so, you can get it from Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace Hardware & other stores like these.

Bulldog Winters, post pics when done. I bought 4 cans (got this number from g8 guys) but i only ended up using 2 cans on the wheels. Think i might try doing this to the C5 DD wheels i have, see how they turn out.
