Stillen Front Splitter & Rear Diffuser Carbon Fiber Dipped

Had it shipped directly to my hydro-dipper in Jacksonville FL. Got it back today! Install pics coming!

Stillen rocks as always!

Now that is super sexy. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?

well geeze...you now got me thinking of dipping the whole grill. Does the surface need to be prepped to be dipped? In other words, do I have to sand and primer? I just got off of the phone with the parts department and they said this piece comes already painted the stock color with the chrome and silver accents. I most likely would purchase the whole grill new because every dealer in NJ had the front license plate brackets already installed. I have been trying to research for a front license plate bracket that attaches to the tow hook in the front of vehicle. Haven't had any luck finding one yet.

part needs to be prepped just as any paint job. if you would like more info, look up Pete's Kustoms and hydrographics on FB

Thanks! And I got a deal because I am in good with the owner. Not sure what it would cost for the average Joe.

Yea I would paint it. Think that would be to much carbon fiber, but not sure.

I was thinking of dipping in gloss black, but didn't realize prep is similar to painting. So I may as well paint the whole thing.

Yes from my understanding, he painted these first, and then dipped it. That is how they get the different background color, etc. (speaking ignorantly on the subject though..LOL)

Ya after researching some, this would just go over the paint to put some sort of pattern to it. Was looking for an easier way rather than painting.
