Haha USPS owns you.
Those are the gayest wheels to ever be embarked on the GS-R. Don't get me wrong, it was a nice paint job, but I don't understand why they gave the 96-97 GS-R those stupid LS mesh wheels, bleh.

duplicolor. go to a local advanced auto parts and they should have that color.
i used 1 can of primer, paint, and clear coat.
1 coat of primer, 2 coats of paint, and 3 coats of clear coat.
alot of poeple sand there wheels, i just washed it real good.
but im sure sanding it would have made the paint stay on longer.

just use any kind of tape. you can wedge the tape along the lip easily
