why dont you just find another R owner or just any one that has the gunmetal R wheels and do a straight trade, your cw's for their gunmetal ?

I dont think it would be a fair trade if i traded my wheels for gunmetals. My rims are scratched up and chipped and im also trying to get the gunmetals in perfect shape. I will just find a place to get them done. Thanks for the pics!

One more question... Do I just get the paint code from Acura to tell the shop? I want the exact gunmetal that the stock r wheels are. Thanks!

trade your whites + cash for the GM. It's going to coast alot more $$ to powder coat them.

should be around $50 per rim, maybe cheaper since they don't have to tape anything off.

Just buy some grey wheels - keep the white ones for an extra set.
