Plastidip, Opinions?

Plastidipped my trim and rims. I also recently did the mirrors. I will post those pics soon.

i like the dipped trim but the wheels are 'eh' to me. the wheels may look a little off to me because of the color of your E90. great job though.

keep the window trim, ditch the black wheels. go back to silver. You can even see the detail of the 162. Dip your grill splitter thingy.

Yeah, I think I am going to take a few more photos and then remove it from the wheels. This is my wife's daily driver anyways, and she doesn't like the rims that much either, haha.

maybe they look better in sunlight

the rims are dipped good but the matte black doesnt go with the color of your car. keep the trim black and maybe do the silver rods on the front bumper. i dipped my 162's on my monaco blue and i get lotta compliments. thinking of checking out the gunmetal plasti dip. it might also go well with your color. i would of at least left the wheel caps not dipped.

for the next round, you may wanna take the car outside and retake those photos. close-ups of the wheels too... can't see any depth in the photos.

I took some yesterday, I will post them up tonight. Those pics were taken in my garage at night right after I got finished with the wheels.
