Dipping wheels and emblems. Cheap way to change things up

One of my first mods was using PlastiDip to change my wheel color and black out my front and rear emblems.

Emblems were coated with matte black then glossifier.

The wheels I wanted a bronze hue and used 3 coats of matte black, 2 good coats of copper metallizer and 2 coats of glossifier. The nice thing about dipping the wheels is the color is close to brake dust color so I just hose it off and go on my way.
