Helped out a camaro buddy today plastidipping his wheels white. In person it looks absolutely gorgeous! Also did the black plastidip on the side skirt. Still have to go back and finish the rest of the body kit. Loved every minute of it. He's actually a member on here. Screen name is TX1LT

Lmfao my tv stand is for a max of 32" yet my tv is 55" and no problems yet...and that does look good....I think I need to really tighten my cats cause I can smell gas so that must mean there is a leak right there.


Lscamaro those look real good!

Haha no shit my tv is 32 too...but the stand is rated for that or a little bigger idk Haha rather spend the money on my car lmao

Thanks though! I'm definitely no photographer...but give it a few cycles there is soot build up and the smell since they're new headers. But can't hurt to tighten them up if you're already down there for the extension


Agreed looks good LS!

Headers will smell a little bit like gas for a few days for up to 2 weeks until they "break in". I'd give it a week and then look to make sure everything is tight.

Hmm alright...well I need to re-tighten everything and plug in my rear O2 extensions so might as well take a look when I am down there.

I like it! Contrast is great and the pure white on Black does catch your eye!! Flat black plasti dip looks good on the skirts too...

No, it's flat black. He had them painted gloss black like the car but the shop that did it did a terrible job. I've literally never seen a worse paint job. It was hazy and looked like it barely had any clear on it. I was going to polish it out but I was afraid to because of how bad they looked. So we basically just plastidipped them since the front splitter was dipped already anyway. So now it matches.
