Looks awesome!

If you do the Calipers IOM, you should think about doing the indentions around the lug nuts with IOM vinyl strips.

I was thinking to make the caps IOM. With a SS maybe? Anyone knows where to score some SS caps from that will fit stock SS rims?

When you paint your calipers I would replace the OEM pads with the ones I've listed below. They leave virtually zero dust. I put them on when I powder coated my calipers and it's one of the best things I did.

Massively sexy sir.....

One of the first things I did to my 95 when I picked up a set of SS wheels was to powdercoat them white.

Best thing I coulda ever done to that car. Made it really pop.

Love how these look on the 5th Gens too.

Pretty clean! I like it. I actually wanted to powder coat some aftermarket wheels but didn't get a chance to.

I was looking to powdercoat mine locally as well, and for a single color it was $100 per rim. Just call up a some local places and get pricing is your best bet.
