Hydro dipping suggestions
 I have no doubt this has been discussed a lot but I'm wondering if any of you that have had items hydro dipped and are happy with the work could point me in the right direction?Looking to get some pieces carbon fiber dipped. Thanks |

I had a few things done in my engine compartment with hydro-dipping and loved it. I looked for places online but the hastle of having to have things shipped did not appeal to me. I found a local place nearby that did an awesome job and a lot cheaper. Check locally if you can.

I didn't make such a thread, hydro dipped on exterior pieces will be a challenge, the elements take their toll.

I recommend Emblempros and I do not recommend H2O printers in Houston. You can check out all my pieces. I had to have allot of my parts re-cleared.

If done right, hydrodipping should hold up just as well as all the other paint on the inside or outside of the car. Just need to find someone that does it often and has plenty of experience. The key is in the prep work and using quality products. There is no reason (aside from damage) any hydrodipped pieces, whether plastic, metal etc should be any less durable than any other painted accessory.
