I had thought about dipping my markers too but really don't want the dry look there during the day. Not bad though. I'm just trying to find some film or thin covers that would work instead. Unless a set of AAC or Showstopper LED markers magically just lands in my lap some day. Them things are kinda pricey.

+ 1. Yeah I dont understand why the side markers are soo expensive! They're just 4 small lights! But I thought about doing PD side markers and then do a few coats of the glossifier so it blends in a little better with paint.

Anyone ever called you a "diphead"? Just joking.

For you guys that are taking the wheels off the car to apply the PD, are you also doing the interior of the rims? It just seems that because the rim interior is so visible, it would look funny if it wasn't coated as well.

You'll find a bunch of brake dust in the inside of the rim in the first place, unless you clean the inside of your rims.


I didn't do the inside of mine, overspray got inside there, don't notice the inside of the rim at all.

Looks good. What did you use to paint the calipers?

um...how about the window tint from autozone... just get a pack for $15 bucks or watever it is...it has adhesive already on it. so you just peel and stick. i would just take a square and cut it with a razor if i were to do mine. i did my tails with it and it turned out very well! i was going to do the spray, but i was afraid of it not going on even. always get compliments on them.
