Default Plasti-Dipped my NFR to GPW

I plasti-dipped my car last weekend for the first time and it turned out pretty good.... from afar. I definitely need more practice but I'm happy that it'll protect the OEM paint and it's like I just got a new S2000!

Lol I'm glad you did this. I was curious about doing this at one point too. From ... afar... it does look really good.

Took a long time?

I spent 2 hours for prep and ~6 hours to spray. Started on Friday night and finished Saturday afternoon. It should be a lot quicker next time, definitely a fun learning experience though!

Looks good! I did mine camo green last year but I'm back to stock. Once weather cooperates, I may do something else

I forgot to ask you about this during the drive, what kind of plastidip was used? because you did a great job I would have thought it was painted

I used DipYourCar's Matte White plasti dip which is manufactured from Performix - you can also buy the dip from Home Depot.
