Is that just the 'can' stuff that you can peel off later if you don't like it? I wonder if they make it in a charcoal/graphite colour???

thanks mate, yeah planning on giving it a proper clean on the weekend so should look good. i just used the can on mine, works out roughly 1 can per rim. the cans only come in white, black, red, blue and clear iirc, but the can custom make any colour if you buy in the tubs

I need to get me some to do my rear emblem.

plastidip doesn't seem as brittle as paint so hopefully they'll do okay with stone chips, i have a little left over for touch ups anyway

just finished replacing my dog bone bushes, surprisingly easy job. although as i took the dog bone out i noticed this...

hopefully it'll be okay to drive around until i get a new mount

on a side note car feels much smoother and feels like more power is getting to the ground

I don't think I'd lose sleep about that on my car mate. The bush wouldn't compress far enough to squish out the side. Put the money towards petrol or beer (not necessarily that order)
