Another ruined M6! Those blue wheel stripes look like hot garbage and the plastidip makes those BEAUTIFUL M wheels look cheap as shit!!! Please don't do this. Get them powder coated the right way. You will not regret it.

Could be a fun cheap way to experiment or make a short term change.

I guess what I don't understand is that this guy went through the trouble of applying those wheel stripes and plastidip on a $130,000 M6. Does another $5000 for nice wheels really break the bank for someone with that kind of a car? I was at the dealership in Newport News yesterday and there was an M6 with cheap ass Pepboys letters on the back of his car that said V10. It was highly noticeable and made the entire car look like shit. I was impressed how something so small can make a car look terrible.

I want to plasti dip my sport line wheels for a cheap temporary change. Anyone know how easy it is to remove? Does it damage the wheel? etc.

Thanks!

It's very easy to remove, all you have to do is peel it off. It will not damage your wheels at all.
