Anyone removed their side scoops to plasti dip them?
 

My side scoops have some chips and I thought plasti dipping them a satin black might look good on a seal grey car. I want to maintain the OEM parts but have something a little different. Anyone done this and can post pics?

Had mine done the same time I had my wheels done, hope the photos help however they were done in the UK using a water transfer method.

Guvs.

I'm considering plastidip for the front intake louvers. I think black would look a lot better than the current mottled silver.

Not my car but heres some black scoops on a 986.http://image.superstreetonline.com/f...bside_view.jpg

Nice!

What's that go for? (post Brexit pounds).

The wheels were £85.00 a corner, and the vents about £15.00 each.

I Plastidiped the front grills - they came out good. I have a Seal Grey car so the black grills look good with the color.

Thanks for the examples. Went ahead and did it today. My scoops were a real PITA to get off but they finally broke free. Sprayed them with 10 coats of Carbon Black DupliColor car wrap. Came out very nice!

Very nice hope you didn't break any plastic bits when taking them off.

Hey NJ, what's with the Mazda sunscreen?
You have a Porsche, not some ricer LOL



Just bustin your chops

I use it hoping some of the Mazda reliability will rub-off! Seems to be working so far!:)

Looks like carbon fiber to me. Is this really plasti dip?? Very cool. How did you exactly do this?

Boxpriest,

Follow this link to Wheeler-Dealers and go in about 17 min and watch then do it. I think there was another with an Benz SUV or Ranger Rover where the did carbon fiber on the inside trim.

That's water transfer, not plasti-dip.

Boxpriest,

One of the great values of the forum is I just realized you and maybe others have another option to look at. Isn’t Life Great! Glad I could be of help.
