Thinking about powdercoating my Rims in april...I just took them off and misplaced one lug not in the process -____-

This means I am going to have to get a new set of lugs so might as well powder coat the rims

What color combo of rims and lugs do you guys suggest?

If you guys have pics theyd be greatly appreciated too













what do you guys think about the white?

see I like white wheels on black cars. or, you could do the Mag-blueish tint to complement the blue flake in the NBP. either or would look amazing IMO.

WHITE would look amazing I think. I need some other things to flow with the white tho. What else could I do to my car to make the white rims flow well. Maybe white brembo setup

Black on white is so fucking sexy.





If not that, I would go gunmetal or a crazy color. Dark ass purple would be cool too

White



Black Chrome/Gunmetal ISH (But I already had Black)



Mag Blue (like JDM junky was selling)



Does the mag blue sometimes look too much like black?
You guys are my greatest critics lol might as well listen to people who know their acuras

orange or white. the white would be sick but it would be such a bitch to keep clean. orange would really be different and would set your car apart from a lot of TLs

don't do mag blue. in my opinion it clashes with black. Orange with white calipers under them would look sick though!
