I was considering doing that too, but i think imma do black first. Later on I could always try the white.

Is this hard to do?

someone on here has white enkeis on their NBP TL...looks amazing...but you'll probably have to drop/add spacers for it to really look great.

look on the photography forum...i think the thread's labelled got rice? or something rice.

i know this is off topic, but i painted my stock rims flat black.I was just wondering if there is a product that can remove the color to make it look stock again without the clear coat coming off the stockies. any suggestions?

TimTim

iTrader: (4)

Your best bet is to sand them down and re-paint them stock alloy again?

Jamal

Why do you want to change your black stocks?

timsta

iTrader: (1)

the color was just getting old on me. don't get me wrong it looks good. but every tL i see i want the alloy again.. or maybe just try a different color.

Jamal

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, I hope that doesn't happen to me.

how would white sprayed rims look

iTrader: (1)

just sanded them down with 320...cleaned them with a good prep cleaner..i used some cheap 99 cent walmart primer...then i used a duplicolor rattle can...name of the paint was gunmetal gray..it wasnt a specific wheel paint tho...then put down some duplicolor clear(not the wheel clear...that stuff gets cloudy if you put it on heavy)they came out nice

D's Up

Can someone post an SSM or ASM with painted stock wheels? I've seen 2(?) thus far, lol. I kind of like the gloss black that the white TL had on the second page but with a red pinstripe on the edge of the wheels like the black TL had.

For anyone wanting to see what there car would look like with black wheels, Try a product called plasti dip. Its not paint, its the material used on handles of pliers (the grip part). Its easily reversable, all you need to do to get it off your wheels is peel it off. Tons of people on other forums have been using it on there wheels, grills... I've even seen a thread before where someone painted their whole car with it ( not a good idea )

I powdercoated the 3G TL wheels white and that's my current winter set-up on my SSM 7th Gen Accord. I've been meaning to take and post pictures for a while now but I'm so busy with work I don't have time to give the car a wash for proper pictures. I may have tonjust take some with the car dirty because it's not getting any nicer here in Michigan.

Still wondering what other colors besides flat black would look good on a NBP. I saw bronze and heard about white, but not sure how those would look. Has anyone tried gunmetal on NBP?

sodaks2k

iTrader: (4)

Yes there are pictures of it in the NBP thread.

*edit

There used to be anyway...

Thinking about doing my Type-S wheels a flat black, havent decided it I want to paint them like that or powder coat them. Thinking of maybe trying the plasti-dip method. That comes out kind of a flat color right?

ArthurL

Plastidip comes out matte black. I've heard of people plastidipping their wheels, and then putting a clearcoat over it to make it look glossy. You can also primer it and then paint on top of the primer.

Once you're done you can just peel the plastidip off.
