Great shots. I really like the color on your wheels.

I will say, the only way those wheels look good is color matched like this. Too bad the H doesn't match as well.

The H would look good painted. You're right. Maybe a project for @eric.schwartz.

You know what, it's funny you mention that because the interior color theme of my car is red the outside is orange. I particularly love it its a good contrast to be honest with you. Yes obviously I absolutely love my wheels... I love the entire package though. Thank you all for the compliments and the in our as well. I plan on doing a JDM yellow fog lights and then in the spring time the k&n typhoon short ram intake...

Ah! Thanks man! Im unfamiliar with the wheel and where the orange you painted stopped. I didn't know if it went right up to the center cap or stopped short or how close it was to the edge of the wheel.

No problem dude always glad to help out a fellow Civic Si owner lol as far as the paint the black paint covers most of the wheel and for the inner spoke as you can tell, it's painted orange to match the body I think it personally came out amazing! I love it. The guy the body shop actually help me out with something, he suggested to me when I clean my wheels from road grime and brake dust not to clean the wheels with water and a paper towel necessarily, but to clean it with a paper towel and Meguiar's detailer spray since it is painted! So I did he said for a more of lustful shine of course... Hopefully that'll make their shine last longer if you know what I mean...

By you being speechless, I'm guessing that's a good thing?

I had a habanero red si ,and was The best color I ever owned.
That orange is unique on a civic,and it looks great with the wheels. Those wheels are designed like their just asking to be color matched . Sweet ride! Though I have to be honest,the seats on the new si's are awful. I still haven't gotten over mine,especially seeing them in my rear view every thirty seconds.Im more shocked ,because si seats are usually super clean and low key. Do you like yours?
Where did you pick up the steering wheel emblem?

Hey dude, thanks! You know its funny, when I went into my local economy Honda dealerships in my house in Old Bridge New Jersey, they had the floor demo model and I thought it was a Sema special edition car or literally special 2015 model or something. Then when I met a family sales rep who finally sold me the car a few months later, I learned that they went out to a special custom paint shop to have everything powder coated painted. fl I kept on comparing the painted wheels, to the stock alloy wheels which were not a bad trade off, but you're right, I love the wheels. Unfortunately I had a little bit of curb rash on the driver side wheels due the misjudging a curb, & I just got the car back today and of course of a great !! Soon I will be putting my SI side sill panels on, some custom gel Civic Si stickers on the interior console, some custom 3d si emblems on my WeatherTech Floor Mats.

Thank you again! Nice how's your night when I was ready to talk about pricing with my dad, ask me what I want that on the car I mean its a fully loaded civic oc course fully loaded with all the nuts and bolts no pun intended. However, on all of my past previous cars including my 2000 Civic Si, and my 2003 Acura RSX, I've always had lip kits on them and I love them. I just have to be very careful with it that's all haha
