Default (temp) PlastiDip

First off, greetings from Norway! Just got my S2K Ap1 01` mod not so long ago and its a low mileage in really good condition. The thing is the paint. Its a silverstone with some areas that needs repaint. Also some minor scratches at the front bumper. Its like small scratches around the car within the paint. And it wont get that shine before I repaint it. (Waxing doesnt work I`ve tryed and the bodyshop did also.) The overall condition of the paint is 90& which is not good enough for me. So thats why I`m thinking about going crazy with plastidip at the bodyshop, for a couple of months and then repaint the silver. So I need you guys opinion on something. I also have 19` chrome Koya rims which looks really aggresive. I love it. The previous owner did some chrome spraying which has started to come off. (doesnt look sooo good upclose) So thats why I`m also thinking about doing the rims with plastidip before I re-chrome them the proper way... So it stands between these colours on the car " Navy Blue, Matte White or Matte black" all with a touch of gloss. Then the rims " White or Blaze Yellow"... I was thinking about Navy Blue car and Blaze yellow rims? I want something different, something that stands out, something crazy for this season, but not looking like a dzxcasc<a you know. So what you guys think would be a cool combo?

Gotcha. Well I don't have a problem with plasti dipped rims (my winter rims are plasti right now) but idk how i feel about a whole car. IMO that blue car doesnt look like it has that good of a finish. Also, I've peeled my plasti off before and it is a pain in the ass. I couldn't imagine trying to get the stuff off of a full car. It would take a long time.
