My budget mods. Plastidip done correctly is durable and looks like a professional finish. Wheels, “grill”, and emblems.

Thanks! The vinyl I used for the chrome was just some 3M vinyl I got from Amazon - Black Vinyl

The wheels weren't Plastidip but actually Rust-oleum's take on it (which I got from Walmart) Granite Rust-oleum



Very nice, I do agree that done right it is a great alternative at a fraction of the price. How hard was the grill to paint? Unfortunately I'm going to need to touch up the wheels as I went into it with the mind set I had with my Prius (which were just hubcaps and extremely easy to paint) which resulted in the unsightly bit of over spray on the tires themselves.

I just masked the grill area with blue tape. As for overspray on the tires the PlastiDip just peels off. There is a liquid mask that came with the kit from dipyourcar.com
They have great tutorial videos. I spent less than $80 total.
