Default No flaming!!!

Alright just a thought, and something i've never seen before and think will definetatly set me apart, and no i'm not gay. Powdercoated Purple ls meshes. And not a flaming gay barney purple, but like a candy apple purple with maybe some metallic in them. This is on a white 2000 Integra by the way. I want to do something different and just wanted to get some peoples opinions on this. Also pictures of any meshes painted or powder coated would be nice just to give me some ideas. Thanks

Ya this is my problem. I've never seen it and am having a hard time making a decision because I'm afraid they won't come out just right. Pictures of any purple rims would be helpful just for reference.

I found the color I would get if I decide to do this here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1454696 Just look further down the page and the color of the lip is what I have in mind.

its your car....do it if you want. personally, i'd save the money from the powdercoating and buy some aftermarket rims. not worth ruining good oem rims.

HotCoat sells a powdercoat color similar to that of the RC Starks (I should know, I have a set. ). It's called "Translucent Grape":
