If you had just said you changed the color of your car to Grabber Blue literally every person in this thread would be loving it. After about 30-40 posts you should have said that you did it with Plastidip, then it would have been fun to see all of the Plastidip haters go back on their words.

IMHO,

1. It looks good.
2. It is cost effective.
3. It is relatively painless to remove if you ever change your mind.

WELL DONE, SIR

Cost?
How much P-dip did it take?
Did you use a air compressor and a professional paint sprayer?

I did the rattle can P-Dip on the Challengers rims
and they came out very textury. Must have been
the technique. 4 cans, 4 rims.

Be sure and post some pics when it starts to peel or if you take it off.
Whats the OEM color under that KonaBlue?
Does it all go south when you open the door
(door jambs), trunk lid, or the (yikes) hood?

Amount: 4 gallons dip + 4 gallons thinner (UK dip), 3 rattle cans (black)
Sprayer: Wagner W550, spraytrigger for rattle can.
Technique: Spray from 6 inches and make it wet, until it has a glossy wet look. Too much and it will bubble.
Go south: No.
Koma blue: Blaze blue

I would have cut the antennae off first before I attempted to spray paint the entire car.
