My Plasti-Dip projects :-)
I love Plasti-Dip.
There was a time I didn't think much of it, but the way it hides ugly stuff (like chrome, lol), imperfections, and the ability to remove it if you don't like it, it's freakin awesome!

So anyway, here are my PD projects so far:

The fender 5.0 badges:

Rear decklid panel:

Name: 2012-10-09_PlastiDip_TrnkLid1.jpg Views: 378 Size: 202.5 KB

Hood vents:

Name: 2013-03-26_dipped-vents10_zps7a8ff944.jpg Views: 379 Size: 344.3 KB

Gurney flap for the GT500 rear spoiler:
Name: 2013-04-26_Gurney-flap_zps1796d3a1.jpg Views: 335 Size: 237.0 KB
Name: 2013-04-27_clean-06_zpsbb96598f.jpg Views: 310 Size: 446.8 KB


And what I just finished, the Airaid CAI rainshield for the '13-'14 GT vented hood.
Before:

After:

I don't really know if they will or not. I have to ask the guys at the post office if that's allowed.

Amazon will not ship it to Germany but you can google plastidip Germany and there is a German website that sells it. Be warned though its expensive, around 19 euro a can.

I'm not done at the back of the car, I want to do something about the light centers, they're too white compared to the surrounds ...

I'm not paying $22 for a can of Plasti-Dip. That's insane.

Do you have a ATU parts store near you? I have seen it there not the same brand as the states. They have a few colors and sells kits to do your rims. There is one in Kasierslatern.
