really? did you use that high temp engine paint? did you prep the suraface too? btw, i didn't use any clear enamel or lacquer finish. i'll probably retouch/redo them again when i get my rims.

vtecaccord01... i used duplicolor high temp engine paint. i let it to dry overnight cuz i was lazy to put them on at night. it also cures when your calipers get hot.

thanks to you guys that like it... and thanks to those that don't. :fawk:
