Dipped wheels

Thinking of dipping the white on the mirrors to match the wheels what do you think? Also the chrome strip at the bottom of the doors maybe?

Nice work nike12000, I also have the same color just a 2012 LTZ also dipped the rims black its been about a month in a half and I feel like its fading looks dusty now even after a wash. You used glorifier on your rims from plastidip? let me know how that is holding up id go for that next if it works out better

I can deff do that I have 4-5 coats of dip and 2 of the gloss so heres hoping they hold up.... but really for less then 50 bucks even if get away with 5-6 months more would be ideal but i love the look now that the mirrors are done I feel like it really connects the dots kinda thing
Not sure if I missed it, but is that the anthracite grey dip?

And you're car looks good, I personally like the mirrors white though.

yes it is he anthracite grey with the glossifyer "sp" on it. and I was on the fence about the mirrors at first but I really like them now I think it draws the car together but to each their own that's the beauty of the product, plus I can rip it off in six months and make the orange if I want :)

And that's what makes your car your own. Do exactly what you like, and who cares about the rest. It isn't theirs.

I bet it looks a lot better in person, the pics don't do justice from what I've heard on that color.

I didnt do anything to the fogs yet as I almost never use them first car I have had thats had them honestly I forget they are their 1/2 the time think I should do hid there also?
heck yeah! mine are, and they look great! and on your RS, it would only add to the awesomeness. also think about painting the gold part of your bowtie white!

please help me out guys and take my poll! Thanks
As stated before, no to the hids unless you get the projectors for them.
I also say no the the dipped mirrors. Makes it look like a base model. But everyone wants what they don't have so yeah.lol

Id throw some stripes on it though.

Doing any audio upgrades?

I have not done anything audio wise I would consider that but would rather get things looking and running before I really dump any major money into the sound but thank you very much for the feed back!
Well since you didn't add projectors to your poll, I vote for trifecta. (don't feel like logging in)

Check out this website so you can slowly build your own. You'll need non OEM headlights to bake open.
