Plastidipped my wheels, badges, hood scoop :)
Nice. Will be interesting to hear from you in 6 months or so as far as how your rims hold up. I've plasti-dipped all my badges but already have black rims. I've been surprised and impressed about how well the badges have held up so far. I usually wash the truck here at home but have taken it to the high pressure spray wash a couple of times since dipping everything and haven't had any come off yet.
My daughter has a 2000 4runner and we like the stock rims but when you look at them closely, you can see that they aren't in perfect shape. I've thought about plast-dipping them but was worried it wouldn't hold up. Did you prep your wheels in any way, or just clean them up and spray them?

Yeah I just took a washcloth and some soapy water and washed them real good. Just have to make sure you get them completely dry before spraying. I have also power washed my wheels and they haven't peeled.
i plastidipped my rims maybe 9 mos back, they have just barely started showing a couple of small chips, from 3 feet away you cant see anything, but they aren't perfect anymore. The winter was rough on them I guess. Still, for the 20 bucks it cost me, i was pretty happy with it. Not sure what I will do in the future, could re-dip, spray paint or maybe time for new wheels.
