Green is the colour of Envy!! (of not having another colour)

Nice choice, nice change to all the boring white ones running around

I think the green looks good with gloss piano black rims. Hey RoccoR how's your plasti dipped rims holding up ?

Good to see some green rocco's. I've seen a few in Melbourne. Surprisingly the colour I've seen the most, so far, is silver.

There aint nothin wrong with being green, just doing our bit for the planet LOL

Of course some may also have noticed 99% of any press articles, photos, test drives, etc are all in viper green cause it is the most stunning colour.

great colour car RoccoR I have the same one. also hear you plastidipped your rims like me? how did you find putting it on? took me forever to jack up the car clean the wheels and wait for the layers to dry!

Heres some snaps of how mine came out.

Finished product. Plasti dipped rims and big brake kit. Looks mean on a CW Rocco.

Great job! How many coats did you put on? I didn't use the gloss on mine did you?

After a few months, break dust will turn your plasti dipped rims into a dirty brown color. And unfortunately you can't clean the plasti dip without tearing it. Enjoy it for a few months. You can carefully clean it with a soft paint brush but it will never be the same as the day you first plasti dipped it. I helped RoccoR do his rims and he eventually got them professionally painted.

Thanks for the headsup RoccOwner I have to say it is starting to look a bit brown and I thought it just needed a good clean. Did you use the clearcoat gloss when you did his rims as im wondering if that will help with them going poo brown over time.

We put the glossefier on his rims which gave them a glossier look but I think it's the actual nature of the material that allows brake dust to collect and stick to it. Even after professional detailing there was still a slight brown tinge to them. Eventually RoccoR got them professionally painted and although more expensive, looks a million times nicer over the plasti dip. Perhaps there is a way to protect them from going brown but I'm not sure. That's why I say enjoy it for a short term and then evaluate your options. A good paint with clear coat will set u back 200 a wheel.

Just got my custom plates yesterday....
Man I love this car.. it is so much more fun than the WRX I've been driving for the last 5 years.
At first I was a bit worried about the FWD, but now I don't even care.
