I have a Rallye Red Si and I was considering powder coating the wheels in black but now I kinda like the white. Nice look though.

I know i gotta straighten out the centercaps. I like the H being the same as the HFP logo with the wheel lock above the H.

Well I didnt pay anything yet, but all im gonna end up paying is for the powdercoating and the difference in the new wheels and what he is buying my wheels back for. If i bought em all brand new (wheels/tires/powdercoating/mount/balance/install) it would of been around 2G's.

Depends on the wheel. I was quoted 150 to repair some deep scratches and repaint. On one wheel. I never went that route.

To the OP. LOOKING GOOD!

Good job on them, I thought about doing this in black but changed to just painting a set of stock wheels.

I think it would look better on a Taffy though, but good job.
