u need to de-badge, or change emblems to honda. honda on the wheels and acura on the car looks bad imo. also red lugs arent doing it for me. and dont feel bad this is all my opinion, the bronze wheels dont look right. what did u use to paint them? im not bashing u just telling what i think. again sorry for all the negatives.

yeah i know i need to change the badges i just havent bought them i did the rims like 2 days ago. I use spray paint cans from Auto zone they sell primer,paint (caliper bronze paint) and clear in cans its all good man no everyone likes something. but atleast u werent rude about it.

good idea! bronze those lugs! dupli-color makes a good bronze wheel spray, those just look a little yellow(might be camara??) im a flat black sleeper fan! so i thinks thats the route u should go

thanks guys for the comments i use VHT caliper paint with duplicolor primer n clear coat im still not done need more clear on them... ther enot bronze thre gold i couldnt find the bronze color at my local part shop so i was like fuck it let me due them gold. they look yellow because the primer was to light i should of have use a darker one. I was planning to go flat black but lately every one is going the road n i want to be different i still need to put the H on the center caps. does any one know where i can get the JDM Honda badges for the Integra that came OEM in japan?

passwordjdm.com ?? did you sand it down before u started putting on the coats? i'm planning to do the samething, but will use a different type of paint, its on a DIY page on clubrsx. i'll post some pics as soon as i finish, but your wheels look good, like how u added the HONDA to it, very creative

did u clear coat over the sticker? you should have, it will protect them and make it look and feel oem.

yea putting a couple of layers of clear on it should keep it in its place, it is after a sticker right? i dunno if it is, but if it is, then chances are the heat will cause it to bubble up and peel off

that post is kinda :2confused ? but it shouldnt bubble, id suggest roughing up the sticker tho (like 5000 grit or something, not to good with the grit thing), buy yea a REAL fine wet sand then clear coat.
