Crash Bandicoot Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Have you guys herd of hydro dipping? If so what's the feedback on this process? Is it durable and wearing well? What parts have people had done? I'm getting my dash panels done when my shell turns up and I decide on what style to have done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon_Bullet Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yep, had a lot done in carbon myself, dash / wheels / engine plastics / interior plastics, if you go for carbon get the gold effect it looks better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Some pics here of dash panels I had water transfer printed, the finish is very durable. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?207241-Hydro-Imaging&p=2638387&viewfull=1#post2638387 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Cheers Nic - can't decide if I like that or if I'd like a straight painted finish... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitch79 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hydro dipping is good..... Fake carbon is not. I like that money look!

Crash Bandicoot Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 I'm not going to have anything done in carbon... It's gotta be real or nothing! As for $100 bills, that'll be way too pricey for the real thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
