Look on the bright side, at least I can spend the $6 on a toilet paper 12-pack. Opposed to the can of spray paint you love so much, you stick it up your ***.

When someone says this, I know they aren't serious, and this is when I stop posting. Calling me a rookie? Which implies you are a professional troll.
I'll let you feel almighty and powerful, and let you get the last post in, since it is usually nonsense. Have fun child, arguing to yourself!

Well well well. WTF happened here?
HotelCrazy, pay no mind to that. I plasti-dip my emblems and that is that. Who gives a rats a$$ what he calls it. I am happy with the results.

Plasti dip does wonders. I've been using it since 2009 on my infiniti fx45. I've painted my wheels, emblems and side view mirrors on my cars off and on since.

I can not see how a can of rubber spray paint is classified as a modification. I know, I hate to be negative but seriously on a Mercedes? I can expect that on a lower end type of car. The plasti-dip will just peel/fade off soon or later.
Anyhow, it does indeed look good!

Depends on the coats and your environment. I see your in Florida so this is the worse state for vinyl wraps and plasti dip. I've done my cars, other peoples cars, my wheels and a many of other things. It depends on how many coast are applied and how it's sprayed on on how long it last.
Idk if you've seen a good plasti dip job but they look stock. I could post a pic of my 335i or fx45 wheels and you wouldn't know they were dipped. I drive in rain all the time. Use to work at Macdill AFB and it floods down there a lot. 5 coats on your wheels will do the job to keep them blemish free in a harsh climate like florida. I've kept paint on my wheels for up to 11 months (on my C350) Only took it off because I wanted to change it back to stock.
Keeping your car garaged is a plus. I don't leave mine out to the heat and elements like most. Now that I've thought about it Fonzy is out of Fort Lauderdale area his cars are all around. You've probably run into a car or a set of wheels that were dipped and you had no clue if it was painted or vynl. It's a reason this stuffs Been booming since 2006 or so.

Either that or get it painted. That was my option when I owned my 07 A6 4.2. Just because of Florida climate and humidity, I was persuaded to get it painted. I was happy about the decision though because I never wanted it changed back. The cars original color was quartz.
Your in Jersey so you should be good to wrap it so you can change it in the future. A good seasonal climate like that it may last 5 years at the least. I'm originally from Maryland. $300 isn't bad at all. You should be looking at the same price give or take $50 on the two options.
