BEFORE AFTER Not just today but over the weekend Plasti Dipped all white panels to black and plastic dipped the wheels, changed grips, painted levers black, painted kickstand hammed silver, applied rim strip tape (red) to wheels, Seat Concepts seat, added a lock to the seat and added exhaust wrap to end burning of pants and shoes.
Please give a feedback how resistant it is on the wheels. Had the same idea, but wanted to leave out the spokes an the hub. Maybe in Winter time, when i mounted my set of TE wheels on my SM.
I have done this to my 93 mr2 and my 02 ford ranger, kept for over a year in and out of car washes, power washing... Now if you are going to beat it up, it may not hold as well as on a supermoto that's more road than off-road. Don't get me wrong, I like the look of the polished wheels but either the previous owner or the one before (I am the 3rd owner) stained the wheels with something. Eventually I will re-polish the wheels and re-plasti dip to protect them. I may go to a different color next time on the hub and spokes. I have use plasti dip on a lot of stuff that I wanted to try a new look and if I don't like it or change my mind in the future I can just peel it off. It all comes down to the prep work. I first tried to do the rim only and it was a nightmare. So plasti dip everything. And I kinda like the all blacked out look.
