Those look great! I've never seen green ones before, very unique. What colour is your car? You should post a pic when you get them installed.

D'oh! Never noticed those before....my eyes are always drawn to the Porsche stripe on the side and then my imagination kicks in picturing it on mine.

They are back on the car, I only have a pic from my phone, but here it is, I also coated the SSR wheels that are on the car also (lips match the calipers, centers are black with a rainbow metallic clear)
I owned the Silver Subaru powered boxster from this thread

I do my own powder coating. I'm interested in how you did it. Do you have any pics of the process? How hard is it to take them apart to do it?

Not 100% sure what you mean, If you do your own powder coating, i would think you would know what to do to be honest
