Default Ever done a drunken night purchase on your car?

Anyone else ever done a drunken purchase on your car?

Some how I ended up watching plastic dipping videos on YouTube, ended up bloody ordering plasti dip in an bloody colour changing colour lol blue, green, red!

Ah well best get spraying and see how it looks lol

Apparently doesn't show very well on camera so if anyone sees a Subaru that looks like it belongs in Blackpool for the light switch on, give us a wave!

i have 5ltrs of matt black plasti dip i got drunk just before xmas! then i changed my mind and got some gunmetal grey (1ltr sober)

I started redoing all my trim and bits that are worn and old, Trying to brighten up the cabin a bit, And the plastic roof trims

Tell you what, Its pretty good stuff if you follow the instructions, Its very easy to use in rattle can form but buy one those nozzle sprayer things off amazon that sit on top for about £2.50
i got mine all pre mixed so its just pour and spray and tried my lower grill first and it looked great, i not done any miles tho so dont know how it will fair up with stonechips.. But i top up will be easy as no masking etc!
The gun i use holds about a litre, Mate has a golf mk2 and i did his roof very quick and easy! the key is coats!! more the better

Im now going to try my alloys in it

Should do it myself, but there is some kid near where i live who rents a unit and does a pretty good job, rather than me trying against the elements will see how it goes.

If it looks decent i maybe tempted to buy a gun when the weather picks up

Cant believe i ordered a two tone effect lmao

Been there, done that! Ended up with an RX8 and a 600 mile round trip. Not my best decision ever!

Lol you still not bought a car yet?

Would be funny if you bought one which ticked all your boxes and the engine went after a week or so lol

Do what I did gamble with £60 get offered a blob eye that looks like it will never last a week, get someone to give it the once over and connect a few things correctly and happy driving for over 2 years now with the value increasing on what it was worth back then

**** it I'm off drinking and gambling tonight haha
