Plasti dipping parts of the car is alright, but doing the whole car in your garage drunk in plain stupid.

Personally I think that it's a ridiculous look on cars, any car.

Why not just get a black one from the factory? Not a fan of matte.

That said, if you're keen on doing this it seems like a good video of how to do it.

I posted a picture of mine in the other Plastidip thread. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, some people like Matte and some don't. There's no need to go and call anyone stupid because you don't like it. I get compliments on my car that is fully dipped Matte black daily. In fact I can't even pump gas at a gas station without someone asking me about it. So let's keep your comments here positive.

I didn't say that you are stupid or the look is, I'm saying that PERFORMING this WHILE BEING DRUNK is stupid. I think it would look relly nice with some black rims.

Painting while drunk is like playing a video game on hard difficulty. Challenging but still fun.

there should be laws against stuff like this

I made it 41 seconds before I become annoyed by the old dude attempting to be cool. Or as he thinks " a da bomb".

I would never use plasti dip for something like this. Matte black vinyl wrap would be a better solution.

Dip is alot cheaper than a good vinyl job tho and still temp as you can pull it off at any time

I can respect that. My only real problem with it is that 1) it gets down into cracks. You'll never really get it ALL off. And 2) it feels kinda rubbery (which is convenient because its rubber) but it just has a weird fell to the touch.

Don't get me wrong, plasti dip is great for certain applications.
