So all of that is plasti-dip, wheels, body, stripes? Looks good.. Is this a DD? Would like to see how it wears over time. Any chance you'll be at the Dragon next year..

Plastidip is good for 2-3 years. I dipped my roof black 2 years ago next month and its just now starting to wear. Actually its not really wear, the rubber just gets old and starts to shrink over time. Plus I'm sure being that since its black and on the roof the sun doesn't help that situation. But I'll peel it off and redo it next spring.

I'd like to add the fading wheel arches I dipped at the same time did not hold up as well. I do drive my car every day rain, hail, sleet, freezing rain, or snow. So those arches do take a beating. But, to redo the arches is extremely easy.
