Plasti-dipping trim pieces - weekend project that turned out better than I hoped. - chrisell - 23-04-2017 08:25pm

Thought you might all appreciate this. I decided to blackout some trim pieces on my Evoque. Went for Plasti-dip rattle-can as I've used it before. The front grill and side vents came out slightly textured because I did the initial coat too light, but the end result actually looks pretty good. The rear strip and lettering are smooth.

Any questions, I'll answer them as best I can.

The ones under the front and rear bumpers? I've considered doing those next weekend.
