Where can I get ASpec wheels in gunmetal?

Ebay rarely carries them and most have curb rashes.

You will not find NEW Gunmetal Aspec's. Acura only made them in 2004, they were 8 1/2" inch rims. In 2005 Acura made all Aspec rims 8" inch wide and stop making to Gunmetal color.

^^ Chrome or Silver Sparkle, I think one more but not sure.

I've read a post somewhere here that Acura will be offering a new Aspec Kit (not just the bodykit) for the TL-S in a few months, maybe a new color will come.

He says they are gunmetal but then platinum in paranthesis, send him a message and ask him to clarify

Paint them yourself. These aren't A-spec rims and it's not quite gunmetal but I'm in the process of painting them myself. The hardest part is the prep work and getting them clean. I plan on doing a right-up this afternoon when I am done.

before



after



The pictures really don't do the shine justice, with a couple coats of clear they really have a nice deep shine to them.
