I did the front grill on my Outback, and the front emblem on the miata. I like the idea of racing stripes, or some other kind of stripe, just for a little while.

I'll get pics up in a few minutes.

wanna see that

Sorry it took so long. Hard to get a picture of a dark interior.

Just a real good cleaning with a strong degreaser. Plasti dip is pretty awesome stuff. It mimics the interior plastic feel very well and is very durable.
