In that application I can't imagine the Plasti Dip lasting very long. Nothing to really adhere to and every time you wash your car you will be applying pressure to the edge of the dip causing it to peel. I think it would take you longer to mask the stripe than they would stay on.

I sprayed the bottom and around the back of my car with plati dip for the Fest this year, to help with rock chips. After driving in the rain and raicing the dip started to roll off the sides of the car. You can see by the top of the gills. It would never last if you painted the gills.
I couldn't get a picture to attach, but if you go through the Camaro Fest pictures for drag racing on Saturday there are several in there. It is dark blue with white plasti dip on the bottom. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=419426 |

I thought about that too but I went with decals. Then I loved them so much I had my shop paint them on! They look awesome!
