My 'Lara is going to my sibling, because i just got an '06 350z.

I'll be doing the wheels in Gloss black and could post up pics when I do. The metalizers look good especially if you like a bronze wheel thats a darker shade of bronze. I'll still be reading up here and will post different things i do.

Ahh, 350z is such a good looking car.
This page will be the place for people and dipping. I'm planning to dip my mirrors and roof matte black just to test what matte would look like even though I've seen it on another solara. I'll be doing it in the next month or so since the Midwest Snow Storm should be gone by now and it's gonna warm up next week so black mirrors most likely on Monday or Tuesday after I get done with class. Good luck with your dipping projects everyone!

Another one of my dipping adventures. Using smoke Plastidip to black out my tail lights. Came out really nice.

It can't find the smoke plasti dip anywhere. I'm too lazy to order it online. Looks good though

He used plastidip smoke which is probably a lighter shade but it looks great. You gotta order it online though to get it unless you live in a state that has a plastidip distributor. I used the original basic plastidip cause the tl has really bright bulbs in the housing so we needed a darker shade. About 3-4 coats we used.
