Hey Guys ive just signed up to this forum after viewing it for quite sometime. Looks like a great forum with lots or resources. I have a 2007 Civic Type-R FN2 at the moment. Its been great so far. No mods yet, just a nice tint to begin with.

I really want to powder coat the rims though, i think white rims on the black type-R would look sweet, with red calipers. What do you guys think? Im more into the subtle elegance of it all rather than over the top 'look at me' mods with bad taste.

Let me know guys.

PS- Working on a budget here.

Yeh i got a hookup when it comes to powder coating rims already. Im just finding it hard to visualize the car with white rims and the red calipers.

Welcome :)!

You'll need the honda centre caps to break it off. Black car + white wheels and red calipers = hot

Check the DIY someone did for calipers where he painted them red but has the TYPE R in white...

P.S. if you can get em powdercoated do it. Powder coating > DIY.
P.P.S. SLAM IT!!!

Im loving where ur heads at buddy. The Honda centre caps would be the icing on the cake really. i think im gonna do it sooner or late. Problem with me is im too lazy, ill wait for uni to be out for the year.
