Looks better in person. If you plan on clear coating them after you paint them spray the clear THICK. Its not real smooth unless you do.

I'll get some pictures of them on my hatch in a couple weeks.

anyone know the Torque specs on the bolts. Last time I used a air gun on them (not the big *** one) and they seemed fine. Didn't strip any bolts or anything. I have a brochure but it doesn't say anything on it. Maybe there is a way to check the torque as you take the bolt off.

Asking because I'm bout to take mine apart again and someone else I know asked me but I never knew

Read in an issue of Honda tuning that some unknown wheel was supposed to have 41 ft/lbs I think. I will see if I can find it later tonight.
