Matte White M3

Hey guys, I haven't spoken on the forums for a while, so I thought I would introduce myself and show off my Matte White M3. My name is Erik and I live in South Florida and I just recently had my car plasti dipped in Matte White. I think it came out pretty good.

Here are some pictures I took yesterday, the only thing is I hadn't installed the front grills because they were painted matte black and were still curing.

Storm trooper, for reals.

Ditch the tinted tails, it will probably look pretty good.

So thats plastidipped? Can you show some high def pics? I thought plastidip came out textured and not smooth.

I like the badges btw.

Looks nice! I've been hearing more and more about plasti dip. How do you apply it to the whole car? Do you remove any panels?

Most people say the finish on the plastidip is not the greatest..... close up higher def picture will help!

+1 to all

This car has great potential though. I thought about a matte white wrap for a while. Well done

LCI LED tails (ditch the black-out - looks ghetto) and OEM roundels and that thing will look great!

I like the look. One suggestion is, would you consider a glossy black finish to the wheels versus the dull/matte finish that the pictures show? I think the car has too much "matte" going on, and needs some texture/gloss to "pop" a little. Just my two cents.

Plastidip seems to be the way everyone is changing their colors now as it peels off. I like the matte white(bias because my car was wrapped matte white). Car looks great

i always find it kinda funny when someone posts a sick ride with some very nicely done mods that everyone has such a strong opinion about what would make it look better... in all honesty its your car and your personal touches are all that matter so forget what everyone is saying about not liking the tinted tails and the black roundels... i think your car looks sick and youve done a nice job getting everything done!

How much does Fonzie charge if you don't mind my asking? Also, did he give you the special cleaning cloth?

It looks funny to you because it has an "M" on it. LOL
