Vinyl, Plasti Dip or Hydro Graphics?

Postby HoneyMonster256 » Mon Jul 07, 2014 1:01 pm

so I am wanting to change the look of the pathfinder, I want to get rid of all the chrome, wondering which would be best to do?

I want to change the front cover, possibly the bumper like an EVO mod, the side mirror covers, door handles & rear hatch handle that is chrome, Which would be a good way?

Plasti-dip is the way to go!

Why plasti dip? Because if I am looking for a more carbon fiber look the plasti dip wont work.

Depends on what you are going for, temporary or permanent. Vinyl is only good if you have a pro install it and it is hard to remove if you change your mind. Plasti dip is a great product you can do your self by watching a few youtube videos. Hydro graphics would best be done by a pro but can be done at home. It is a permanent solution so make sure it is what you want.

Or just paint them. Much durable than vinyl and plastidip, and easy to do. Just prep it well so it will last longer.
