I guess you can never stop huh.

Got a set of these for a steal. Stripped them and going to have them powdercoated black chrome.



Yeah they're only 16s but I don't really feel like sinking a bunch of money on new tires.

Here's the black chrome color I'm talking about...

 

Sweet. I need to find someone around here to do that to mine.

 

nice. is that tsx?

 

Accord V6 wheels.

 

NSX looks good cant wait to see them gl

 

Thats gonna look sweet. Good idea

 

OK so now the question is what color should I do my center caps?

Unfortunately the backs of the center caps are plastic and can't handle the head in the PC oven?

Going to get black chrome lugs. Or maybe I should do black lugs and center caps?

Again, here is the wheel. Going to be a PC black chrome finish.

 

i think black center caps w/ the "H" or "A" in silver would look good.

are you going to use Honda or Acura caps?

 

Acura. Nothing on my car is Honda. I think I'm going to have to paint the caps and get "A" stickers to put on them. Clear over them and I'm done.

 

Thats what i would do. Paint them as close as possible to the color and have a silver A sticker made and placed over and then clear them.

 

interesting project, will be cool to see results.

 

I was thinking about doing this to my stockies.

 

I did my own centercaps...I sanded, cleaned, primed, painted, cleared and then put the white vinyl sticker....

 

Teaser pic. Won't have them mounted till I move the end of this month.



Ordered the "A" emblems. Should be here next week.

 

Nice. How much did the black chrome powdercoating run you?

 

$90 a wheel + $20 for all the lugs

 

Not bad, you pretty much get new wheels for less than $400. I may try something like this with my stock wheels once my new ones get here.

 

Yeah I think I'm going to strip my 99 wheels and have them re-cleared then try to sell them. They're still in great shape for being 11 years old.

 

Did the same thing to my TSWs but I did them in gold. Better than buying new rims and waaay more cheaper.
