Well it looks like the wheels are already going back to polished. The plastidip peeled off of one on my drive to work today, and I dont plan to spend the money to redo it

Sorry to hear that. What we the outside temperature today? I wonder if heat affects plastidip.

Plastidip on wheels on looks good on trucks and race cars IMO.
I really don't like it if the car is an extremely glossy black like yours, doesn't match. Glad you're going back to polished.

Ya I agree, the matte black just looks like its dirty next to the glossy black paint. The calipers look great though! I thik I might try that next.
