I've never been a fan of chrome so I decided to plast-dip my trim while I'm at my parents house in Cali. Here are a few before and after pictures for anyone who might want to do this to their car. I still need to work on removing the mini badge from the hood and rear trunk.....
The day I bought it, all stock.... First, the easy parts...... Then the slightly more difficult parts.... Wheels are dipped too..... and the final product.....added the hood stripes too (vinyl, not dip) but I might pull those off and go for the ones that go down the center of the hood..... |

Very nice. Did the same with mine with the blackout of chrome, which turned into a headlight joey mod, which turned into the entire car being plasti-dipped. Someone else said it here best that it can be a little addicting.

A Joey Mod is a term used in the backyard community. Basically its heating up your head lights to take them apart and paint the inside. http://psmini.org/forum/headlight-modification_topic10599.html Mine.... |

ah, I dont have faith in myself to do something like that. Knowing my luck, I'll end up damaging the headlights and will have to pay a buttload of money for replacements. :(
