Did a little experiment with some plasti dip. Car is originally Arctic White...made a custom plasti dip mixture. Pretty happy with the results.

After seeing the pics I wanted to ask about rubbing issues but I see you already have those.
I had to raise my car 1cm in the rear and 0,5cm in the front because the springs settled and I the tires rubbed on every bump.
What tire / wheel specs are you running?
Those Michelins have a nice slight stretch in the back.

) but I mean i dont go over bumps that fast when I wasnt lowered lol.How long did you wait until the car settled? My installer said only 3-4 days I should be good so I'm set for an alignment in 2 days. (installed last friday).
The rears are 19x10 +50 and the tires are 275/30/19 PSS

My concern would be how does plastip hold up over time versus a vinyl matte wrap?
Nice thing about the plastip is its easier to remove then vinyl and most likely less costly.

I had my car set on H&R coilovers at the lowest level and had no rubbing issues.
Now 8'000km aftre the install, the rears rubbed on every fast corner. I raised the rear by 1cm and problem solved.

yeah I will try to adjust it using mikes way so I dont have to take the suspension apart.
thats funny you bring that up, because I actually drive my car ALOT. I think I have 5000 miles on this set now, and that is including 1 track day and a couple auto x's. I also drive pretty hard on a daily basis...i guess it just goes to show how well the PSS wear!

. The side wall looks bigger. I don't know if it's the photo angle or something. I only have 2000 miles on my PSS. Maybe that is just me
