Default Nismo stocks powdercoated

Looking for pics! Have only been able to find a couple in black and nothing else. I'm looking to have mine done PPW with the stickers re-added, but I'm not yet certain. What are your opinions on this?

I assume you mean powdercoating your wheels to PPW.
I bought the RPF-1s in hyper silver, wish I had gone with Super Black Chrome. I enjoy keeping my paint perfect, rather not spend the time on brake dust, and white will be a total bich, even if they are sealed.

That was my only thought on it, but black/black would be the only other thing to fit my build. I'm already fed up with dust on the stocks and I can't imagine white.

Change your brake pads. I use EBC Redstuff and after a month of driving there's still no visible dust on my wheels. I bought them for the performance, but the lack of sticky dust is a bonus.

I was really trying to hold off, as the brembos were replaced right before I bought in 2014 and doing fine. I don't know if I could justify the cost just for less dust :P

Just something to think about. I've got them on 5 cars, and have been using them for at least 10 or 12 years. Great pads, don't beat up the rotors, and they bite well hot and cold. The Greenstuff make a bit more dust, and the Yellowstuff have a lot of dust and noise, so the Reds are in the sweetspot. You could probably find them on Amazon for ~$225 for both axles.
