Default plasti dip 2 tone

this is my truck and i was wanting to do some plasti dip 2 tone to the bottom of the truck all the way around and was wondering if anyone else did this on a red truck and to see what it looked like before i did mine

you didn't say what color but I'm assuming either matte black or the glossy black.


https://www.f150forum.com/f4/04-08-t...-thread-36387/

on this thread some people have plasti dip their trucks two make it look two tone. mainly on white one's looks alright.

I would also do an image search plasti dip fx4, f150, etc.

In my honest opinion i would get the matte black to be more subtle and you need black rims/ black and red rims and some meatier tires if you want this to look super clean.

If you keep the stock rims the machine finish they are and matte black plasti dip the two tone. I have a feeling it would just look awkward. Another option is plasti dip the two tone and your rims. that's the cheap alternative and i don't think that would look bad at all.

But You only need a can or two ($7-14) to see how it looks and worst comes to comes worst you just peel it off

From my plasti dip experience a can a rim (i have 20's) and I'm about to try plasti dip the two tone (white) within the next week or two. but I'm guessing probably two can's just for the cab on one side. So maybe 8 or more to do the whole thing.

i just did my white truck. and it looks great. my dads red fx4 came with the factory 2 tone and that looks great also. so i think it would look realy good. i used 3 cans on the cab and bumpers and 2 for all 4 rims

pic of my truck maybe u can photoshop it red.
