    So my 97 gt has a fair amount of cosmetic issues, and i considered a paintjob from maaco and yes i know you get what you pay for, but i think maybe dipping it might be more worth it since its cheaper and pretty simple, i just really want a shiny finish but oh well. I like the red so I figured id dip it red and maybe get the glossifier, what do you guys think? anybody on here who has done a full dip?

    From what I've heard the plasti dip can be a pain to keep clean. I would figure out what it's going to cost you to dip your car and then go from there.
