s13 Plasti Dip 2-tone?!!

Thinking about Plasti-dipping' my S13 Vert, 2tone...
I've seen a few verts 2tone, looks pretty clean, but never saw a plasti-dip 2tone yet..

what do you guys think?

(non plasti-dip) just a regular 2-tone vert.

Plastidip can look good if you do it right. Just make sure to put enough coats.


Plus it will protect the car too! I plastidipped some of my mazda and never had any problems and it looks good. just some tearing along the edges over time.

Plastidip looks like shit. Spend your money on something better. Wheels, suspension, engine, whatever.

I think he has the highest post per day of any non OG Zilvian or Mod at 13.

To JDM Josh, if it cost you more then like 50 or so bucks spend that elsewhere.

You can pull off a decent paint job for cheap if you have an air compressor.

I heard that more coats makes it easier for it to peel off. Look into that beforehand if you decide to do it.

Hopefully the postwhoring isn't full of lies like the one above.


As to the OP, you want to know why you haven't seen it done before? Because it's a dumb fucking stupid idea.

Stop being a peasant.

What's next, painting cars with nail polish?

You should plasti-dip the upper portion and vinyl-wrap the bottom.
And go to all your local meets and do photo shoots with other car enthusiasts.

I'm mature enough to know cars shouldn't be plasti-dipped.

If you asked me the same question in person my reply wouldn't be any different.



You asked what I thought, and I formed those thoughts into a post.

Question: Should I plasti-dip my car? (Y/N)

Majority answer: No.


Now that we have this established we can lock this thread and pretend it never existed.
