I think this an STi from Germany. They also got the colors red and green I believe. I was wondering where I can get the dark rims like the ones there. If I cant find them Ill have to settle for Prodrive P1's.

Like many have said, those are JDM STi stockers, probably powdercoated black.
That anthracite paintjob must be custom -- that color's been unavailable for Imprezas since the WRX STi Ver. V

Not trying to jack the thread... but while we are on this topic... =) Does anyone know where I can find those JDM/World STI 17" wheels? I've seen them in gold. Do they come in silver (or other colours) also? I just saw a set on EBay recently, the price is good, but the shipping is like GBP 300 from UK X_X

Thanks.

Easiest way is to go directly to Japan. You'll be nicely gouged by shipping otherwise, and I doubt that many people in the US would give you a good price or even be willing to sell them. Overseas wheels are tough to buy b/c of their sheer size and the fact that you need 4 of 'em.

Im not familiar with powder coated wheels. How much would it cost to do this? and where would one get this done to their wheels?

depending on size. 16" wheels usually cost about $200 for a set to powdercoat. 17" will be around $250-300.
