so i had my stock rims left over from my previous accord and i decided to mess around and paint them glossy black i left the center cap alloy but should i paint the center cap black to match the whole rim or leave it cuz i figured it would mesh well once i put the chrome lug nuts on.. im torn to paint the center cap or leave it.. oppinions suggestions neonn thanks for the help its appreciated!!

the rims Stock ALLOY.sorry for the big pic i couldnt find a pic of just the rim.



now sanded and primed


and painted glossy black.. the center cap is iffy though..lol

 

Paint it black and the Honda emblem red. By saying you live in westchester/bronx does that mean Pelham?

 

im close to pelham my dad works down there im like 15 mins away from pelham and when im in the bx im usually on morris park/tremont

 

looks great. keep up the good work.

 

Looks like a rollerskate.

 

by the way, nice sandles

you should get a set of nice aftermarket springs after. that'll complete the stance.

 

o boi we had that conversation already it looks like a rollerskate yes we know the car is high that was accomplished like a million years ago..lol im just talking about center caps rite now not lowering springs..lol

 

lol those actually arent my feet those are the girls who painted my rims feet..but i dont have that accord ne more it was stolen im in the process of getting a new one but yes i agree 100% lowering springs is needed on the new one i was looking into Eibach Pro Kit sportline drop kit..

 

I like the look of white primer on your sidewalls.

 

those tires are garbage thats why i didnt care if we got primer on them or ne thing those rims will be taken of these tires and put on brand new ones so i dont care about that stuff..lol

 

any pics?

 

lol no sorry no pics of her..ill see what i can do for u though..lol

 

agreed, that'd look hot

 

wait, you didn't paint those wheels yourself? you let the girl did it for you?

wow.

 

The black looks pretty good but when they go to dismount and remount tires on them, they will scrape that paint up. Maybe I am wrong but usually things like this will chip easily especially once they put it on the machine to mount the tire JMO

 

my thoughts exactly

 

yea it will chip my friend said so after there put on we gotta touch them up..lol i didnt paint the rims i dont know how to do it but its pretty simple but i dont wanna mess them up so i let her do it she did her rims and her friends they both have new lancers they painted theres black to so mine was just an experiment to see how theyd come out they look good gonna put them on the car see how they look..
