Winner - POTM November 2018
Thinking of getting some plastidip and doing the wheels Red. Does anyone have a white 200 with RED wheels or any other unusual colours?
Wouldn’t mind seeing what it might look like 1st

Thanks in advance

Thanks chaps, I'm going to do it.

If I use Plastidip and the glossifier (sp?) at least if it looks bad I can just peel it off.

Well, this afternoon I started with the plastidip after countless videos and growing some balls to do it.
With other commitments they won’t be finished and on the car until Thursday night but here is the prep and 1st two coats

They look nice in grey! :tonguewink::tonguewink:
 
I like it! Think the diamonds in the middle of the centre cap need to be black, to break it up a bit? (And a cup spoiler!) :grimacing::wink:

Those look great. Now do the door bullets black with red writing, and the front bumper insert red to finish it off nicely.

Yeah I thought that. I’ve ordered some new black nuts and I’ll sharpie the diamonds

the diamonds just pop out very easily, id have took them off before spraying personally (to remove the centre caps with wheels on the car, I found it easiest to whip a diamond off and then insert a middle sized screwdriver into a slot and just tease it off)

I peeled off the Plastidip and went back to the standard colour in the end. I have since purchased some Laguna Silverstones and had them powdered white. Just looking for some track rubber now
