Hey everyone,

I'm trying to vinyl wrap or plasti dip the chrome areas in my car. Does anyone know a cheap place to have either done in NJ. I'm not looking to spend much at all. If anyone of you guys are in NJ and do any of this please let me know.

Thanks

I don't know of a place but vinyl will look better than plastidip. It's not a hard process if you take your time. Use a hair dryer when needed but cold wrap will work best.

What part of Jersey are you in? I'm in Moorestown and there is are a couple vinyl places in the area.

please do not plastidip your car. probably just as cheap to buy replacement parts.

Plastidip is yuuuuge on the Tacoma forums, which us about all you need to know when considering whether you should do it to your BMW.

No one here does plastidip or vinyl wrap?
Still trying to find someone

Just paint it. The plastidip won't last long, particularly on the front grills and then you'll have to peel it all off anyway.

I have a lease and I'm looking for a peelable option. If I paint it I won't be able to peel it off upon returning my vehicle

Just replace the items, and keep the factory pieces for trade in time.

Cold wrap is wrapping without using heat. When you add heat it does allow the vinyl to stretch but it will want to return to its normal state. Wrapping cold provides the best result without thinning the vinyl or stretching it.
