^^^^ Thanks guys!

just a thought tho, are you going to respray if/when you decide to rebalance the wheels, unless you want markings of the weights still in the oem shade.
Yeah if we need to we will I have extra paint.

Hmm.. wonder if you might be able to refinish them like we did or if yours are too gone..

Is there not a DIY thread for this? maybe i should make one for you guys if interested... i got it off another acura site.... Planning on putting rid pin stripe and clear coat over it. so make it look like time attack wheels. But other than that its a good wheels untill REAL acutal rims. Took maybe a good three hours. The wheel were really dirty had to scrub the crap out of it, and wet sand and so on. =D looks clean she will post pictures soon.
