that's what I was told/ read, depends on how the car is stored and driving conditions.

Either the wrap or plasti-dip, but never seen a plasti-dipped car other than on line.

Dinsdales looks great from the pics

86.5 here, waiting for your results to consider mine!
not sure if you can notice (low res pic) but you can see the spidery cracks all over the paint. funny thing, there is still a clear coat, no signs of clear fade that i can see, just the under paint is like that in most places.

I am going to be doing this very soon to at least ONE of my cars and if I can find the right color TWO of them!!! Already know the color for one of them is available and really nice to work with. Already have a very good installer picked out as well.

Now, Tony, what is the best way to remove the rub strips and fill the holes because I'd like to do that on one of these cars... Is there a way to fill those holes without welding??? I am not going to take the doors off or apart for this and will just leave the rub strips in place if I have to take the doors apart to fill, but if there is an easy way then I am all about removing the rub strips! That said, they don't bother me live and in person, but I don't like them in pics.

Looks like the same color as my 86.5, which is Weisgold.

Ok, here it is. Just picked it up. Looks great. Cant believe the difference.
Here are some Pics.
Color is Matte Silver Metallic.
Notice the sunroof wing is wrapped also. Looks cool.
The seams are very well done. Looks like paint right up to the seams.

Last thing I need to do is put the "928s" on the back.
