Has anyone tried the "glossy black wheel package" on dipyourcar? I really want to black out my mags but not sure if I would like the matte finish. It won't let me attach a picture on my phone but I will tomorrow if someone wants one.

Just did my first ever plastidipping. Gotta say, kinda love it.

With white inlays from ebay. Also did the orange reflectors on the side mirrors.

Reach into the vent and pull the whole assembly straight out.

The whole thing is 3 pieces. The chrome trim is clipped onto the body with 4 clips and an alignment pin keeps it properly clocked.

Going to PD some stuff on the truck this weekend. My brother did PD Matte Clear over Chrome, turns it to a nice aluminum.

Also ordered some Anthracite True Metal for the grille surround.

Debating if black bumpers will look ok on Sterling Grey.
