Default Silver Bullet V2 (2012 tC2) build

I didn't think it would be worth posting up a build thread for my tC2 because its not much but I figured with time I would add some cool upgrade parts.... so here it is... How it looks so far...

ooh, I like the roof spoiler. I'm getting mine soon. Hehe. You definitely need to get window tints though to get rid of the fishbowl feeling. haha

I was debating how my tC (same color as yours) would look with Plasti Dip wheels. I have no doubts now. They look really nice. Nice build.

^ I just picked up two cans from Home Depot, they're like seven bucks each there but they only stock black. I guess I'm copying this build, I want to dip my badges and then the front grill area like some other tC's on here. Did you remove the wheels when you did them or did you just do the bag over the brake cover thing?

Dipyourcar.com is a good site to get your Plasti Dip from and I used 4 cans for all 4 wheels.....
The glossifier will just make the finish of the wheels shiny

Yea i removed the wheels, didn't want to go through the trouble of covering the break pads.
I think it will also come out nicer if you just take off the wheel

Yeah I think that's what I'll do, I'm betting its a lot easier to work with. Did you use index cards to cover the tire or did you just peel the dip off afterwards? And also the visor looks awesome, I hate to say it but I want my tC to look like yours, I hope you don't mind.

I didn't use index cards, peeling off the plasti dip of the tires was real easy.

I'm thinking of doing the side mirrors, if I do I'll post a few pics of that and the badges, even though my tC is still bone stock and looking like a 4x4...
