Gotta say now that I see the whole car it looks much nicer. It has a look. I think if you could paint the black parts glossy it would look better but I don't think you can do that with plastic dip. If you take it to a shop it will be hard and costly to reverse the look. That said it will be very cool to have a totally custom look. Keep in mind the re-sale will be more difficult. Have fun. You're the only one who has to like it.

Paint the backside black. Completely silly question. Anyone who says differently just does not GET your Vette.

Just do a vinyl wrap. That way if you go to get rid of the car you can take it off and not harm the paint. I don't trust the plastidip stuff. Just my opinion
