why not just powder coat them? if you paint them it wears and chips.

Cool 4wd civic https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emsmilep.gif , gold wouldnt look too bad. I would rather keep them silver because I dont believe you could get a nice gold finish with a spray can, maybe you could go and prove me wrong. Good luck with the rims https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif

powder coating is cheep. i had mine done for 120. plus if you look at the combined cost of painting over and over again to keep it looking good. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emwink.gif

Leave 'em stock color to start... 17"s on a hatch is gonna be enough bling at one time https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emwink.gif
