I am digging it out in the daylight. Been struggling with where I want to take the look of this and this is a step in the right direction at least in my little tiny brain.

I will work to eliminate all the gratuitous chrome now.

Looks good! I did Plasti-Dip on the exterior badges of my Audi S7 and they held up great with no peeling, etc. It's all in the prep and patient spraying!

Not exactly sure what is meant by this comment....but I would say the bronze movement was popularized mostly by the Mopar muscle cars of the last 5 years. My Beemer has silver wheels.

Oh, and it looks good? At least in my opinion.

Honey, it peels off! That’s what you could tell her?

Dakota4ce, looks great! regarding the peeling off comment, is that true even over extended periods? I hadn't seriously looked into this option, but had heard that if you didn't peel it off within 6 months, it would start getting MUCH tougher to remove.

I have never heard that—I would assume that if it’s applied thick enough there’s no issue. It has to be thick though! Thin dip DEFINITELY is a PITA!

These are Ford factory wheels....and have been for a number of years? They came on my truck...?

I guess I might not be tracking your angle very well. It’s all good!

You can always peel it off. I peeled the 2 years old Plasti on my 2016 F150 before returning it without to much probelm.

Just be sure to lay down enough coats of Dip, the more you put, the easier it will be to remove.
