second question i want to paint my rex a metallic beige or tope color with black wheels like this excpt keeping the moldings black buuuut..


the only problem is i have si wheels and really like them but dont wanna ruin or rice them by painting them black.

No, the iacv ate different. If you need one from a d16 pm me I have a few.

If your si wheels are scuffed up with curb rashes I would do it. If they are clean I would leave them alone. You could even get hx and fat fives that look nice painted black.

they arent mint but they are not bad only one has a scuff on it.
other 3 are nice jusr not "fresh" lol
im sure no matter what some say
ill be hated for painting oem wheels

I have seen si rims painted black and dark bronze, I couldn't rock my si rims like that.

rice_rex

haha thats the thing i dont know if i could either lol
i like the way they look and i love the fact that they are oe honda wheels and thats why i wouldnt want to spray them over...but at the same time its the exact reason i want to. lol

rice_rex

anybody else have any opinions on painting the si's?

i know it takes away from the integrity of oem honda parts but...come on tell me it wouldnt look kinda nice. lol

a friend of mine up the street painted his muffed up si rims like this goldish bronze.. and it just doesn't look right :/

if they're in crap shape, paint them. if they are decent, leave them alone.
