    Whats up guys. This is actually my first post to the website do I hope I'm doing this right. Lol.

    But I have an 05 Maroon Grand Prix (I'll post pictures when I figure out how) and I was wondering what color do you think would look good on my car? I was going to plastidip the rims. I was thinking black cause I've seen it on my car color before & it is ****ing sick. But I was trying to see if anyone else had any other opinions on the color. I was also considering like a gold/bronze color. But let me know guys. Remember I'm plastidipping

    why does it have to be plastidip? if you're going to ruin the wheels you might as well just paint them.

    I've never ruined any of the wheels I've done with plastidip. But that's just my experience with it

    General opinion is that plastidip is bad. Keep it for tool handles.

    Otherwise I'd say Bronze/gold could look okay.

    Leave them silver. Why not just get some nicer wheels in a larger size.

    Make one black, one gold, one orange and one pink....



    And put a sticker on the fuel door. And hang a toy from your muffler.

    If there stock wheels I would just leave them at that.. Stock wheels look terrible when you attempt to change the color of them.. Save up and go aftermarket then find your color choice. Plasti dip is the devil and looks like sh*t don't be that guy.

    Plastidip is not a bad idea especially if you're having a hard time to choose the best color for your rims.
