Targa Bar Plasti Dip

Just finished a Black Plasti Dip finish of my Targa bar this weekend, right on top of the faded bar original paint, and it is a surptisingly good match to the factory finish.

It will last a lot longer than 2 weeks. I've plastidiped rims and other parts on cars and after a year they looked like I just did it. It is a great product to use until you have the chance to do it properly,or would like to see what it will look like in another color. Looks good btw.

What's nice is if you do not like it, you just peel it off.

I agree it's not a permanent solution. However, it does last more than 2 weeks It's been on an early turbo tail for over a year now. Where it is failing is at the edges where I lift the lid from. Otherwise, decent coverup for what it's worth.
