That's cool.

But instead of masking the whole fender it seems that the logical thing to do would be to take the wheel off.

I will definitely have to try this once it warms up a bit. Does Acura have touch up paint for GM ITR rims?

The color for the '00-'01 ITR wheels is Kaiser Silver Metallic (it was a factory NSX body color).

This is what I was thinking. Is that spot bondo going to hold up when getting a tire replaced? It looks like it worked very well but I wouldn't want to break it all off when new tires are needed.

what is the NASA technique that he is refering to? There is a guy that had fixed his wheels with something like that, it looked like it worked for him, but I don't know how durable the bondo is, may all fall off during tire change...
