Rims look good man...be on the watch for easy scuffing/scratching though.

Looks good! I helped plasti-dip my buddies wheels on his 2010 mustang, which are the exact same wheels as yours.
Painting the brake calipers green or orange would another a cool accent color!

What makes you say that? My wheels are powdercoated not plasti-dippped. It should hold up better than paint. I also try not to hit things with my wheels/car and save the rock crawling and off-road driving for my truck.

I apologize...I must have read your original post wrong. Powdercoat will hold up GREAT. I have a matte-black finish on my 2013 GT500 wheels and they show every little scuff that comes their way. You'll be just fine.

No need to apologize, you just confused me. But, the pics could be mistaken for plastidip. I haven't heard anything good about that other than it is cheap.
