Looks very good CivicDXR! Does the paint chip at all since the paint is thick? Or is it pretty well on there HEHE Looks good man!

Wow that does look good CivicDXR. Where did you buy that paint? I think I might just try that with my 98 GSRs. If it doesn't come out right, I can strip the paint back off.

the paint is fairly thick, I haven't seen it chip at all yet... The paint is Duplicolor High Perfomance Wheel Paint, the color I used was called Anthracite/Graphite...here a pic to help you out:


I got the paint here at a place called Canadian Tire, which you guys probably don't have in the US... but its just your typical sell everything Walmart'ish store that has slightly more emphasis on auto parts...

Duplicolors web site says that its available at Walmart, AutoZone, Kragen, and KMart among other places....
