My plans are to matte black the trunk, spoiler, rear bumper etc. I have yet to decide what the best method is to apply the dip.

Any advice/help would be appreciated but again good job on your car.
Thanks for the compliments! Its still going strong on the car for about 2 years now but its almost time to change the color again. Once you do it the right way you realize you can change the color of your car like changing your underwear! Its all plastidip so if you do small sections use the cans. Its actually easier to paint the whole car than it is to do small areas as i have painted over 20 cars now. I highly recommend you do your research into DipYourCar.com and check them out. You can buy a car kit with the HVLP sprayer and paint for $300 to $400 depending on the color. Then practice! This was the second car I painted in my short career before I sold this business for the one I have today. Now I just do it for a hobby when I feel like it. Not a bad trait to have but its not my main money maker anymore

The Air Force did a story on me this last month if you want to read up on the history of the theme. http://www.goodfellow.af.mil/News/Fe...ark-chevy.aspx
