Icon3 DIY- PLASTI-DIP RIMS!
Bought some rims at a great price, but not my style to be plain.
So bought some Plasti-Dip.
Only $6 a can.
For those who DON'T know about Plasti-Dip
It peels off 100% without a trace left behind. GOOGLE it!

interesting but looks good. never seen plasti-dip used this way. do you think it will hold up against the heat braking will produce?

pretty cool but what about road debris?? once its scratched can you do a touch up or do you have to peel it all off and start over?

best thing is you can change colors when ever you want....

Does it peel off easily or is it an all day affair pulling flakes off?

the more coats of Plasti-dip the easier it is to pull off.
