So a friend and I have the necessary equipment to do a Plasti-Dip coating on - whatever. We had a gentlemen who offered to be the 'test' subject but backed out at the last minute. We want to try our hand at the trend so to speak. We're looking for one or two 914s in "good" to "excellent" exterior condition - the stuff won't stick to rust, but will stick to solid paint or gel-coat (fiberglass/CF).

For the cost of materials and a few pesos (or beer + red meat) we would like the opportunity to do your car. We're also looking for feedback on rates to charge for potential clients. The teener group would be a great way to get feedback.

Some info about "dip your car" or "plasti-dip"

Unlike other coatings it won't damage paint. Especially important for older lacquer or enamel-based paint jobs.

Again, we're looking to get into this and are hoping to do a few cars to 'showcase'. We'll be doing my buddy's 911 cabriolet once he gets the material. I'll also be doing my Cayman in white + black and hopefully soon a buddy's GSX-R in two-tone black/white + clear and my 2010 Vulcan. We need portfolio material!

Shoot me a PM here or e-mail through the board. We're looking for locals to SoCal/OC, maybe as far as LA/Riverside but we're not sure yet.

So... Brandon... You're driving a Cayman now? Got a good paying job? Good going kid! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
Thanks Elliot (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Long time no chat. Had to sell my Carrera to get it, but no regrets. It's like a 914, but much faster and with one of the best suspension setups I've ever felt on a P-car. Chances are because it's not a 911 it will be considered a NARP in 10 years' time anyways.

Standard colors from the Plasti-Dip site



And their new fluorescent colors, for riced-Hondas wheels (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)


I think the NEON green would be great with some contrasting black. Maybe the orange and white for cup-car colors. I dunno (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Blend up Yellow + Red for orange, choose the lighter blue and you can get GULF-PORSCHE colors (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
