    was inspired by several cars on this site with lowering springs and blizzard pearl... and then a couple that also had black rims. Sorry to copy everyone, but then again, consider it the sincerest form of flattery ;)

    Installed my Rude person's mid-brace. That thing is awesome. Amazing how big a difference such a small piece makes.
    Can't beat the 10 minute install either!

    That's the ultimate form of paint protection. How long do you think it will last before bits of it start peeling off?

    I wonder how much it all weighs, and if it changes aerodynamics.

    I ordered 4 gallons, and used 2 to do the whole car. I messed up the roof, so I peeled it all off and did it again, using another little bit out of the 3rd gallon, and I need to touch up a few other spots too (first time dipping something big like this). 3-4 gallons is plenty for someone who knows what they're doing I would think.

    That's the main reason I did it. I'm taking a road trip in a couple of weeks, with lots of Interstate driving. I don't want to have to worry about stone chips and bugs as much.... :)

    I think it will last quite some time, the only areas I'm worried about peeling are the door handles.

    Not sure about aerodynamics, but.....


    Less than 2 lbs for the Plasti dip.

    Does the 2012 bumper daytime driving LEDs work with the conversion?
