I did my dials a while ago while the car is under the knife...they turned out well
I'll have pics of them on the car as soon as I get my swap done....almost there!

Did the front end of the race car, it's been on for a while now. Not sure I like the design, may rip it off and start over before my next race.

How many cans to cover? and What was your technique with the masking for the lines when you painted?

Just shy of 4 cans. I used painters tape and then a razor blade to cut before removing. The curve on the back of the quarter panel was actually straight and then cut freehand with a razor and peeled.

You should make a black silhouette of a squirrel on your car... I'd pay to see that

Not installed yet. Probably will install sometime before next school year. The car has been out of order for other things this month..

Sorry to hear that, hopefully all will be well again soon. I'm just two small parts away from being able to drop my v8 in, and they should be here within a week...it's been a long road getting all the parts and everything together.

That looks great! I have been considering some Plasti-dip graphics like that, but was unsure how the masking would go. All I have done is wheels and other small areas.

Hmmm. Maybe it's time I start going for it. Hell, the worst case scenario is I tear it off and am out the cost of a couple cans of the stuff!

That's the best part, you can just pull the **** off. It stands up well to track debris, but is not that durable when removing racer's tape.
