Painting (anodizing) Rims?! Questions/Suggestions
Alright well I have an 03 black base model rsx, and I really want the Mugen MF10 "17" thing is as alot of people know there rare to come across and a huge dent in the pocket, anyone know how to paint rims? where I can get this done?
And the MF10 is like a goldish bronze so I would want something along those lines, any help?

All you really gotta do is sand the **** out of them until they are very dull and you cant see the shime anymore then coat them with whatever color you want them about 3x and them clear coat 4x. I actually read up on a DIY on k-series.org. I think thats the website, but yeah that would be how to paint it your self unless youre looking to have it powder coated.
kingmotorsport.com is re-releasing the Mugen Mf10's in january, there is no price currently set but they are probably going to be around 6-800 per wheel, if you want them i suugets you save you money now because they will probably go quick!!!

But for right now Im trying to get some decent bronze or something, along thsoe colors, is there any other true bronze makes out there still?

The MF-10s are selling for 2900 bucks. It says so on the wheel section of their site. Only sold in sets of 4 with a 1500 down payment. They are 16X7 +43 mm offset. And King Motorsports is negotiating a run of 17X8 so you might see them out in 17s next year sometime possibly?
All the info is on King Motorsports website.

Paying $2900 for some freakin' wheels is INSANE! You have got to be kidding me. My RPF1s are lighter than those Mugen MF-10s and I paid about $100 per wheel. Maybe if you were building up a show car or an all Mugen car, MAYBE. Mugen stuff is so overrated. I have the Mugen grill on my EP3 because it looks nice, but I would never have spent the $375 it costs new.
To the OP, have your wheels powder coated. (Like your valve cover) Don't paint your wheels yourself. They will look like *** after a few months or a year. Powder coating lasts much longer and is only about $50-$75 per wheel. Usually only a 1 or 2 day turnaround.
