Sounds good to me, check out Ste's 206, his was silver but now is white with the black parts you've mentioned so least you can see what it'll look like

Plastidip isn't as fragile as you might think. I did my winter wheels for my MX5 in gunmetal using it last year and when I went back to my summer ones after about 5000 miles it still looked fine. You need a good few coats and you need to make sure the surface is nice and clean.

I believe it is easy to peel in the first few hours. But bonds stronger over time. I have seen a whole car plasti dipped then washed with a pressure washer and car wash. Not one flake or peel!

I probably going to do my black trims to stop it fading.
