I really like the stock rims the Z came with and right now have no plans to change them out as the car is getting NA bolt on's + osiris at the end of this week so thats where my free money will be going. I want to plastidip my wheels, then paint them a bronze. What kind of bronze paint can I use? Reason for plastidip first is I case I want to peel it off. Any suggestions? Looking for brands and where I can buy it .

 

Just leave them

 

Thank you for your suggestion sir.

 

If it's the HR wheels then I;ve always liked them done in black, with the face of the 5 spokes polished, or silver, along with the edge of the rim. Can't find a picture of it through.

 

You plan on painting over plastidip? I don't think the paint is going to adhere very well.

Google painting rims for cheap, or DIY wheel paint job or variations of those. There's mountains of info out there.

 

Yes sir they are the HR wheels. I have a 2007

Ive seen some threads on older honda forums of people doing it, but not too much and I havent heard if it will or will not adhere well.

 

paint over plastidip is money, i used to clown the plastidip posts but that is one amazing product..

got chrome rims?

Add 5 layers and it becomes a removeable primer.. is totally paint over able as well.

Super cool stuff. JlOster did his the day after i mentioned it, looks fantastic.


OP, im doing this to my beater set of hweels, XXR 526s.. spraying the entire wheel w several coats of plastidip when brand new and COMPLETELY devoid of oils.. and Im using rustoleum Antique brass as the color.. its a sweet metallic bronze color.


im not going to plug up my photobucket w these, but thers links to the results:

you can also buy the seperate colors from the kits from that Fonzie guy on dipyourcar.com.. so whenever you get tired of the color, you can change it up.. full camo green in the works as well on thiose wheels.. i guess i can just change it whenver i want for hella cheap.

 

There is already a huge thread for this topic that you can search/ask your question in, so another is not needed:
