Thought I'd show you guys what I've been doing to my car the last few days-

_

Last week, my battery died. Ordered a Optima RedTop batt immediately after.

Got it in the mail two days ago and for some reason I decided to start experimenting with Plasti Dip that same day.

Replacing the battery in my car is a ******* joke. I will never understand who thought putting the battery in the wheel well was a good idea.

Anyways, got that swapped out and got each rim plasti dipped.

Took about 4 hours to dip all 4 wheels and change my batt. (Took so long because of the battery placement and because I had a ****** jack and had to do each wheel one by one.)

The following day my MRX-M110 and my HD149BT came in the mail!

Back to work! Got my old Fosgate R500X1D swapped out and the MRX-M110 in!

Got my ****** old HU out and the HD149BT in. Took about an hour to get everything installed nicely.

Don't mind the partial air freshener stuck in my vents lol.

I'll post a picture of the MRX if requested. I forgot to take one.

TODAY!

Blacked out all my emblems with dip and got my subs mounted down in my trunk.

I mounted my subs with a huge $20 piece of heavy duty velcro. Seems to be holding up very well so far.

Doesn't look so bad for a garbage old car ay?

EDIT: the entire reason I wanted to dip my rims is because the chrome was starting to fade. They were not taken very good care of by the previous owner.
