So for at least 12 months the window trim area on my 2005 S40 has looked crappy, the rubber had rotted and was falling off in chunks. I removed all of it and applied 7 layers of black Plasti Dip and the results are fantastic. While I was at it I did the rear badges as well. They too came out great. Please see the photos in my album.

The silver / plastic trim on the top of the rear bumper looks like crap so I cleaned off the fractured plastic and will Plasti Dip that so it looks like 1 black piece of rubber accent.

After that I plan on doing the faded rocker panels and the maybe the black plastic under the front and rear bumpers... then maybe the grill.

By then I will have run out of black to cover... except for the wiper blades :-)

My neighbor wanted to know how the Plasti Dip "knew" not to stick to areas that I did not want to coat! It reminded me of the old Thermos joke... but how does it know when to be hot or cold? :-)
