Painting straight over the alloy rims?

 

[SiCoupeStud]

Park Place Mercedes, where I took my CL for service, said they can do it and should look great since they do it all the time for alloys on their cars, unless somebody wants to buy them this weekend. I already have some wheels in mind, and would use my tires, but not in a rush so figured black would be sufficient for now.

Your car looks a lot better with HFP kit and coilovers. Did you install that HFP kit by yourself?

 

[Nick USMC]

I like the Honda symbol on the left side pin stripe. Beautiful car.

 

[Pauly99to17]

Love the HFP kit. Great looking car!

 

[Pir8pete]

get rid of the pin strips, wheel locks and plate frame, also the dealer F'ed you by installing the front plate making holes, that sucks. other then that looks ok, just don't turn it into a rice paddy

[Emir Taranin]

How much of a drop can the BC Racing type BR coilovers go?

 

[SiCoupeStud]

I think up to 2-2 1/2", Emir.

Thanks for the compliments. I just picked it up from Mercedes. The stock wheels are SICK in black. Thinking of just keeping them, or change colours if I itch for a change. It is going to get wrapped and filmed tonight. Will not see it until tomorrow night once I drop him off.

Tell me those wheels in black... I... Can't stop staring at them... Lol.

Looks good! I'll second the motion of removing the pinstripes and dealer plate though!

 

[Michal006]

What do you do to keep your car so shiny? Mine is covered in salt.

 

[MrsJrotax101]

He probably avoids salt.

It may have to do with me living in Dallas.

However, I'm a nut about spotless paint... I dust it daily, hand wash 2-3 times a week. It's very zen for me. Cleans my head to clean my car.

I am waiting in my body colour plate bracket, but I actually like the pin stripe. It's a nice touch, especially in person. I think I'll keep it. I would however like to have the little Honda logos painted red. We'll see.
