    thinking of plasti dipping by emblems but am curious how long it will last with weather, car washes, etc. I don't want to be having to touch it up constantly so I haven't decided to do it yet and was wondering if I could get some feedback from the guys who have done it.

    Ive used plasti dip on trucks in the past and havent had a whole lot of issues...u will wanna stay away from automatic car washes and definitely dont wanna spray directly with high pressure...but then again plasti dip is made to be easy to remove...so if your looking for more permanent id consider painting if i were you. Even though i plan on dipping my emblems soon.

    I was going to install the Nox Lux overlay kit but when I got it and further inspected it, it looked cheap and the holes for the "A" and "O"are filled in.

    Did the same but cut the holes out. Only the "As" were filled in. Easily done w/an exacto knife. :thumbsup:
