I'm finally going to get my rims powdercoated white for my birthday, and since the center cas are plastic, they can't be painted....does any one know any other caps that may fit? specifically i want the dc5r, because of the red honda symbol, but i can go with all white too.

Contact the shop doing the work ... you should be fine
might be a little HARD to get the H to red via coating
there is a guy on ebay i believe that sells "overlays" for the centercap to change the symbol to red

 

does anyone have pics of powdercoated white stock rims? How much will it cost? Is it something you can do yourself?

White centercap with red H would look siiiick --like the type R wheels :D

 

The shop that quoted me said they could paint match the center caps....? They cant powder coat the caps but they can PAINT them.

 

yeah the shop is charging me $300 for all four wheels, they cant do the red h thing, and he said he couldnt powdercoat them because they're plastic, but he didn't say anything thng about hand painting, plus if the dc5r's fit, i'd rather go that route anyways...does anybody know if they do or not?

 

i am also intrested in powdercoating my 07 si's bronze or gold on my nhbp....would like to see pics when done.

dc5r's fit but bad offset
spacers are needed.

I think he was reffering to the centercaps and not the entire wheel... ? maybe he was asking about the wheels themselves tho.

just for the caps?

 

Well you could always try to get some red h stickers that would fit on the caps... but i think that would end up peeling off or messing up

no i meant just for the center caps....instead of having to paint mine and putting stickers on them which will eventually look crappy, i found a set of dc5r center caps for $130....thought it would be easier if they fit...and i am a SHE...jeez! hahahaha

 

I'm going to go this same route for my TSX rims. I think it might be pretty easy to just shave the face off of some center caps and buy the chrome H's, or you could just buy some championship white center caps. It depends what you want to spend on the project.

 

anyone?

 

i love the look of our stock Si wheels.. powder coated white with the Type R center caps would look soooo nice on a NHBP :D

 

i was hoping somebody would know for sure, so i dont buy something that doesnt work?

Contact the place thats coating the wheels
its not hard to ask them if they can coat the caps is it?

 

that's not what he's asking though. he's already said they can't powder coat them. He's wondering if the type r center caps (red H on white) will fit our wheels.

they cant because they are plastic, and it will melt the plastic. and he didnt mention handpainting the caps....i just wanted to buy the dc5r center caps since i wanted the red h symbol anyways, thought it would be easier but i want to make sure the caps would fit the si wheels first.
