Default red plasti dip

I see a lot of people black plasi dipping their rear fascia. My C5 is black already. I was wondering if anyone had a picture of a black C5 with a red plasti dipped rear fascia?
Just curious.

may look better than I am thinking here..Put the black over the black it is a flat black so it will make a diff,s in looks for sure but not as much as a gloss black then a flat red...Robert

Don't recall seeing it done in red, but hey, be the first. If you don't like it after painting, you can always peel it back off.

It would look ok as long as you had red on your rims and a matte black paint job.

That's exactly what I was thinking, red with the glossifier on my spiral gray rear. Also doing the front spoiler lip. Please keep us up to date, L8R ZFLASH

I believe they make it in silver and yellow. But even the black is somewhat difficult to find (Lowes is where I found it). Maybe you can order it online easier. But silver would look good if you can't find red.
