Plasti-Dipped my door handles. NoMo Chrome!!
Love my car except the chrome door handles. Going to be dipping the whole car white this summer but in the meantime black handles will do.

That looks like the thing to do to the chrome in the rub strips as well. Thanks for the idea!

Wow, im surprised at hoe good that looks on the chrome. Definitely the way togo for blacking out the shiney stuff.

I was sick of my car being 13 different colors so chose to dip the whole thing, my neighbor had everything so we went for it, ill have more pix here later, i just got to paint the middle black stripe but for 300$ im happy. We did the roof black as well.

Re: Plasti-Dipped my door handles. NoMo Chrome!!
Not bad at all. Ive been thinking I might dip my wagon someday, the paint is really rough on her and it would look way better than a rattle can job.

Use a home paint sprayer, it feels smooth honestly no texture. It has almost a stain finish.
