You don't need it. You need cissors. Buy stickers, cut them and slap'em on.
Like I said, OEM STI center caps are larger in diameter than OEM BRZ/FR-S ones. I know because I wanted to put OEM caps on my winter wheels and they are too small. STI caps fit just right on the same winter wheel.

I've never used plastidip so I'm unsure of the quality the wheel would look like.

This is something I would need to find out. Hell if it looks the same as a quality powder coating I would go with $6 a wheel.

I need more info
Join their forums, you will get some really good ideas. Guys are dipping their whole cars.

Well, I'm going to keep the stock caps in . I'm powder coating my Sparco wheels to gloss black. The center caps on those are 61mm back and 49mm front. I'll prob just grab a 49mm decals

Holy shit... And he has HID's in stock housings... Nothing says "rice" more then that lmao
Yeah man you got me lol I totally don't beat corvettes and Porsche's at autox events. And my euro oem hid reflector housing scream rice I know. But I did reframe from putting a "S" badge on. Sure I don't have an FRS now because they were not out when I needed a new car, and a lot of other original forum members were in the same boat. I do however still plan on getting one in the next few years and like to keep up with things. Just trying to save the op some face when people ask if he has the sti version when there isn't one (out yet).
