Yes, plastidip.

You should ask Dave.

Taken this past weekend at CupCake Meet 15 before I ditched my car the whole day to run the event. The dip is still holding up strong! I also did the roof black, but you can't see it in the picture.

no, not the whole car, i meant doing the roof black

Hers is starting to speckle bits of rust showing through

I was hoping he would post a picture of his black roof today. His car was laser blue and now it is matte white of course, I just assumed you would get the same effect. I would dip it black

 

[mx-p5]

I knew he did his laser in white. I did also just see he did his roof black too (not in a pic but in text)

So yeah, i'm curious to see how his looks

Honestly, not digging the black roof, Cam. I think it only looks good on lighter cars. The contrast is what appeals to me.

maybe if it wasn't flat? IDK, I respectfully agree Evan.

Plus it will match his Plastidipped front bumper and it just looks kinda mismatched. No offense, of course.

 

[JDM_Pro5]

I respect your opinion. It would look much better if my bumper was painted (which is now scheduled in December) I figured the roof was rarely seen and this would help with sun damage and discoloration

It was something fun to do. Worst case scenario, I can peel it off and I lost 12 bucks. No biggie, that's why I love dipping, it's reversible

NO DOUBLE DIPPING

How bad are they? Headlight restoration kit could help.

Or buy brand new sedan lights off eBay for $100

rolled over 160k, did an oil change and a brake fluid flush. there's a sensor behind the block towards the top that's leaking oil. i dont know what it is but i can use a socket to remove it. what does our knock sensor look like?
