Got the Z back today! ;D (Pic included)
She's been in the shop since Monday. Had the wheels powdercoated and the door handles painted....both black. Turned out PERFECT! Door handles match the body and the wheels have a semigloss.
Pic from my iPhone below. Sorry didn't have time to take anything hi-res.
Plz no "painting stock rims sucks" haters. I've debated over this decision for the past six months and this is what I decided to go with. So you're wasting your breath.

I want to pc my rims just to have a little variation off stock until i get some new ones, but I think the 03 touring ones would look nasty pc'd. These look nice though
EDIT: Also, smoke dem tails and reflectors

Regarding smoking the reflectors and the tint...
I want to do both, lol. But I got sooo many tickets in my Civic (which you can see in the background, now beat to hell) that as for right now, I'm not doing anything illegal.
Tint law in Georgia is 32% which is what the windows are.
Originally these guys were supposed to smoke the reflectors but that's also illegal in GA so I'm holding off on that as well....for now. I may do a slight smoke later, I dunno.

I guess if they eventually crack, I'll end up getting wheels. I love the look of black stocks for now though ;D

Stock wheels on 06 are 18". See page 9-9 of your owners manual.
