    Looks ok. Not really sure if it'll look good on a green car though.

    could I just paint the calipers with krylon paint or whatever it's called and they'll be fine? also here's a pic during the day after the rims were dipped

    painting those calipers will eventually just flake off and draw more attention to them.

    Powdercoat the calipers and it will be legit.

    Wheels look meh, but I don't like all black wheels. As long as you enjoy it that's all that matters.

    should have left the wheels alone. the green needs the contrast to really set it off. take my old car as an example:



    notice how everything else is black, except the wheels and the body color? it looks good like that.

    And Bio who knows what kind of shape the wheels are in, he is in canada, and plasti-dip comes off in a minute.

    Also check and see if wbody store delivers to canada

    hmm they do ship to canada, but they seem to only have 3" downpipes. Should I run a 3" dp on a N/A car?

    Both ZZP & WBS deliver to Canada, I have the receipts! Don't like the black rims, looks like a winter beater setup IMO.
