Plastidip vs Paint vs Powdercoat?

So I ended up Dipping. I haven't even owned this thing for a week yet lol. Anyways I did it at night and now during the day I realize that I need to do some minor touch ups, no biggie. Anyways here's some cell phone pics. Thanks for the advice everyone!

Just dip? Any glossifier?
 
Looks nice! I like how it looks on white. Did you do the SkyActive badge as well? I ended up completely taking that badge off, as I didn't like how it just looked like a black strip.

I just left it on for now. I might take it off also.
 
This is a great idea, I'm going to try it this summer after I get some new tires in 5k miles. I will likely take mine off the car to do it. I have a small garage and a sloped driveway, so there will be some difficulty there. I definitely want to do the emblems too, especially the steering wheel emblem, cause that damn thing will catch the light and blind you while driving. My CX-5 is white, so a black hood might look good too.
 
The white CX5s when they get all their shiny goodies all blacked out look like a Storm Trooper, so cool.
