I need to find a local acura dealership because I think the nearest one is like 30 miles away (long distance call). Thanks panawan.
The idea of the two different colours was just a theory that I had because of the numerous people who had stated the colour as Solaris, when my information had shown it to be Kaiser. I actually contacted the dealership today and asked for the part number and paint code for the '00 wheel and '00 centre cap, as well as the number and code for the '01 wheel and '01 centre cap. The part numbers for both wheel and cap are identical for both years, as is the paint code - Kaiser Silver. What this still doesn't explain is the difference in the texture of the spokes on the '01 wheels that I have personally noted. Perhaps Honda switched to this texture in '01 and kept the same part number, similar to how the '98 shifter is black and the '00+ is polished, even though there is only a single part number for both.
