Plans for my days off
So I'm thinking I'm going to get some stuff done on my days off. So far here's what I've decided I will definitely do:
Plasti-dip wheels Paint exhaust tips I'm thinking about de-badging, but that will depend on if our weather man is correct or not (I'm not holding my breath) as he's saying it will be 53, 55, 60, and 55 for my days off...that 60 day would be nice for de-badging, washing, and a quick detail wax. Anything else you guys can think of? I'm also going by a local shop that makes vinyl graphics to check pricing on R/T hood stripes and possibly some custom badges. For those that don't know, here's what I'm going for:  Here's the total list: Headlights (done) Tint fogs (done) Custom badges De-badge OEM badges Drop (done) PD wheels Tint puddle lights Tint tails Limo tint (done) Change matte black b-pillars to gloss (have the stuff, just have to do it) R/T hood/fender stripes

The one thing I really want to do is get it as low as I chopped it. It's about an inch or so off but I don't want driveability issues or a really harsh ride if I start cutting coils. Maybe I'll just save up for a bolt in bag kit in the future.

OK, I need your guys' opinions too. Should I do something with the center cap and lug nuts also or just the wheels themselves?

If you are going to plastidip the whole wheel i say do the centers too. I would start with the Chrome then see what it looks like. Black and chrome usually accent really well. Hell maybe leave the centers chrome too.

 I wouldn't dip the lug nuts. Every time you rotate your tires you will have to re-do them. Not sure on the center caps. You could paint one of them and see how it looks?

I think it should be a package deal...if I'm going to paint one, I need to paint the other. I think for now I'm going to leave them both and see if I can find some OE spec lug nuts that are a true black.
