I truly hope one of us gets that rig. It is beautiful!

I wonder if I leaked oil, if I could get a few looks from the ladies...

Damn, dude. Your making me jealous. I wish my plastics could look that good. I spent so long trying to make them look decent and it just doesn't come close to yours. I also only have rwd.

I took all the plastics off and sprayed them about a year ago, I think it was Dupli-color or equivalent trim paint, stuff worked great and nothing has happened at all, pressure wash and everything.

I tried the duplicolor (dark grey) but it had a blue tint to it that just didn't sit with me. So I tried another brand (sem) which was better but still not the deep greenish grey that was from the factory 😢

The previous owner of my X sprayed the bumpers with grey trim paint. No idea what type. It looked great when I bought it and still looks pretty decent, but there are a few chips from shopping carts etc after about 4 years. I may re-do them, but I'm likely to have to get the whole thing repainted at some point. The paint is starting to craze all over the place. The joys of living in a hot, sunny, humid climate.

So far pretty good here, no chips or scratches - I did sand and prep them pretty good. Maybe in 4 years I can see something happening - but it was fairly easy to do, so I would just redo them once they got bad again - not overly hot or humid I guess here in the NE

Yeah, it's very common to see cars down here with the clear coat completely peeled and faded paint. Especially on the roof and hood. Dark colored cars seem to get it the worst. Probably because they absorb and hold more heat. Black car in the tropics... noooo thankyou!
