                    I used an entire can of PlastiDip on my iS lip (like 7-8 coats), and then I clearcoated it! I was taking it off at the muffler shop the other day, and I bent it pretty hard in the middle while I was taking it off, not a single crack or anything in it.

                    PlastiDip is GREAT, but because of the finish and material, it will attract and hold dirt/dust like crazy. The clearcoat kept the finish and the durability, but it gave it a little shine, too. It looks semi-gloss.
