Plasti Dip Bottom Trim

[ROXTAR]

Why not buy the ones made for the car?

[Beneficiall]

Because the OEM ones are expensive, and aftermarket ones are also expensive and/or unsure if they'll fit. I have material to make my own that will look nice..I just can't figure out how to line up the holes...

Have you checked your local wrecking yard?

[Beneficiall]

I haven't, I actually didn't think of looking there for mudflaps. The aveo LS came with them stock right?

I've been away from the forums for while and this caught my eye.
This is mine and my husbands work. Been on there for about three months, we did grill front lip working on sides and rear bumper, there just isn't enough time in the day sometimes. Lol

Totally forgot about my side vents.

and a pic of side, gonna repair the damage due to people getting in and out of my car.... After, we're going to hit it with clear coat so hopefully this doesn't happen again.

I've done the vents three times and can't get the plastidip too adhere properly to the chrome. Maybe cause its winter? Ill try again maybe in the summer. Did you take front chrome lip over front grill off to do it or did you leave it on and tape it off?

Beneficiall, put the cans in some warm water before spraying. Make sure the parts are clean AND dry. Maybe great up lightly with a heat gun if you can do so without melting the chrome plastic. Just because you don't see the moisture doesn't mean it's not there. You'd know if you ever try to weld metal without preheating it in winter months.

702_AveoLT, I'm digging the retrofits. Did you make those or pay someone else to make them?

We left the grill on and taped it off, corners peeled a bit lol we fixed that. And the air vents weren't that difficult but I live in Vegas, so cold isn't an issue lol
