Wheel paint. Which do you like the most?
I am going to be away for a week soon, so I want to do the wheels while I get a chance to have the car sits idle. VHT, Duplicolor or another brand. Or should I have my cousin paint them in his body shop? Powdercoating is not an option here. BTW, the wheels are Duplicolor Gunmetal but have curb rash.

I like Duplicolor if you're painting them yourself. And I seem to recall your car being white, so I would suggest bronze. Here is a pic of an NX wheel I did about a year ago on my white classic, it's a little blurry, but you can get an idea of the color:

I did gold on the b14 wheels on the last se-r. I thought it looked good. I think it was just engine enamel paint, no fancy wheel paint

duplicolor rocks the house, I really like their clear... but there are other brands that will work fine.

That was messing with my head too!
I figured the oil drain pan is being used to hold a tireless rim in front of the current wheel on the car to see how they might look...
