Over the weekend I dipped the "Bead Lock" on my XD Enduros. I'm not super happy with the way one of the wheels turned out. When reinstalling the bolts it twisted some of the plasti dip off. I'm going to have to respray that one. I'm going to see how I like the red over the next few weeks, then I may just peel it off and have them actually painted. The durability of the dip isn't as good as I'd hoped. We'll see.

Oh and I need to finish getting some of the over spray off, It got dark pretty quick last night, LOL

Anyway, let me know what you guys think:

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I was kinda on the fence at first, especially after the mishap with some peeling. I think I would feel better with actual paint though. I do like the color and the appearance it gives.

Looks great, if you keep it I think the truck would look much nicer if you plastidipped the badges red too!

I'm going to debadge, I already did the tailgate, I just need to finish the doors. Maybe the ram on the front and back. That might look good with a red/black combo.

Yea I think that would look awesome. I'd love to see some pics of that if you did it.
