plasti-dipped my GLK rims and grill
first time i plasti dipped so there is plenty of room for improvement
I really like the look though it gives it more of an urban warrior element.

Looks good. But I wonder how well the dip will hold up after several washes. I assume wheel cleaner would damage the coating. I guess you should just use the car wash soap to clean the wheels.

Plasti-dip is a great thing lol idk how it holds up on wheels but on other stuff it holds up well through car washing and is easy to touch up.

Thanks for the photos and posts.. I am not a fan of all of the chrome upfront with the grille. The black grille I think has a euro look to it, which I really like so much more. So perhaps that is next on my list here soon! Thanks again and I will update with photos.
