Hey guys I have a 2002 Nighthawk Black Pearl Integra Type R and recently bought some Shadow Chrome RS-GTs second hand... They are a bit beaten up so Im going to take them to be repaired and also thinking about getting them powdercoated in a different colour. Now my dilemma is what colour? I was thinking maybe gold or bronze (leaning more towards a darker bronze) but still thinking if another colour would look better/suit my car more but also wanting to be a bit different (not to out there though haha). What do you guys think:confused:

with a purple car...black with silver lip? or white, maybe a gun metal grey...depends on what colours can work well. for instance In my opinion, my car wouldnt look good with anyhting BUT white rims

i think i paid about 40 or 50 per wheel. dont know if that is expensive or cheap. got them done in black and hot my mate to make me sed stickers for the center cap and turned out pretty good.

deffinately gold...how boring and Dull would black be.
besides dont worry about powder coating... take them to a panel beater, they prep them up nicer and actually give the rims a nice shine to it, ive had my wheels powder coated before...finish wasnt all that great.unless ofcourse your looking for that dry look, anyhows my 2 centz.
