To be fair this is an interesting read..... I was tempted by Plasti dip, and the doing the whole car. I have dipped my bonnet, which for me was a double edged sword, i liked the idea of a matte effect bonnet, and also it would cover up the fact that some k^&b keyed it.
The plasti dip has held up to now, but i would honestly say that if this service was available in surrey, at this price id take a punt and do the whole car. 400 quid, is good value even if you get 2 - 5 years out of it....
But i do like the fact that if i change my mind with plasti / rubber dip it can just be taken off...
But this Mod lark is all about personal preference and how deep pockets you have.... id love to shell out £1500 - 2k for a full respray.... but then thats the value of the car.
