Plasti dip Colouring parts
Hey guys i have an MK3 trend. Wanted to paint my stock 5 spoke rims this color


https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.n...72050969_n.jpg


those rims are like a metalic dark blue...

Which plasti dip colors would i need?? Anyone have any links they could point me towards??

I'm thinking the plasti dip blaze blue + silver metalizer would get me towards that color?

maybe this will help. i'm thinking black+blue+metalizer. if u use white as the base it will be brighter and the the stock wheel color will be a little darker but black should keep it as dark as possible.

Thats a bummer that Plasti-Dip is so expensive there. They are only like $6-12 a can here.
