May this be a thread to show off your Ralliart in an easy to find place. At some point we may branch into individual colors, I don't see the need for that yet.

Haha thanks!! Your not the first person to tell me that!! I really appreciate it to knowing that my Sportback looks that good! Stay tuned because starting 2013 while I'm in Hawaii the car will change dramatically for the good! I can't wait!
I'm pretty sure you cannot start that sentence with "By", please correct me if i'm wrong. I also noticed you capitalized "I've" which doesn't need capitalization either, for shame teacher, for shame!
I used to have a Chevy Colorado before my Ralliart...I swear this car handles better than that truck did in the snow. Obviously much more fun as well. ENJOY!
Went for a run up Angeles Crest Hwy today and got the RA a little dirty for these pics... It's absolutely filthy in the driveway right now... over 2times more dirty than these pics...
How did the color match up with the WW?? Gloss coating turn out good? I've dipped a few things on my car but haven't used the gloss yet.
I'm thinking of messing around with some black plasti dip on my hood. Spray the center section with the scoop/vents and leave the rest orange where the contours of the hood lines go above the headlights (if that makes sense) Someone on here with a OB X has something like that, though I think his may be vinyl. Pretty cool and different. Of course if it turns out shitty, I can just peel it off!
its not a clear coat per say just the clear version of plasti dip to add the reflection/gloss effect. so far though day 4 of driving with it, no rock damage yet. hit a couple bugs carefully cleaned em off.

yes peeling it off the paint is easy stuff i had the center bottom plastidip black before and it was easy to get off and clean up.
as far as color match, the color is not 100% matched, maybe 80%. With out the gloss you could easily tell that they werent the same whites. With the gloss it helped blend it better. Up close you can tell whats up. From maybe a car length away in the sun light you cant really tell. driving down the road you definitely cant tell the whites dont match.
When it starts messing up im going to peel and sand and paint with real paint. unless i can get a more agressive lip and retro fit it.
and as for the gloss plasti-dip. i ordered 3 cans and barely used half a can. I didnt wanna over kill it and make the lip stand out since it is plastidip'd. it's very weird to use though cause you cant really tell if you did right while it is wet.
Yea I'm surprised there are hardly any lips available for the Ralliart after being in production for 4 years now. Figured there would be a decent selection by now.
