Decided to paint my stock rims in gold... here's the results.

 

look pretty cool

 

Not bad at all man! What paint did you use?

 

How Scooby-esque is that?!?! I like it a lot. Almost makes me wish I''d gotten the blue. I might go with a darker bronze color or a lighter gold color. The coloryou have is sorta coppery. I like it, just thinking about what I'd choose.

 

Rustoleum metallic gold for indoor/outdoor. And a high heat clear coat from Auto-Zone.

 

Looks more copper than gold on my screen, but still nice looking!

 

I got the idea from the Subarus lol, I love that color combination.

For some reason my camera keeps making it more coppery than it really is, tried a few different white balance settings and it's still not getting it. Maybe I'll shoot it in RAW and see what I can do.

Otherwise the color isn't as coppery as that, it's more of a deeper gold.

 

Cool, I came from subaru back to honda (had an '86 quallude and an 87 Legend.) I still lust after a GC STi, or a 22b. /drool The newer body styles just aren't as focused looking as the older ones. I do like the bugeye with the JDM/EDM headlights.

 

Never had a Subaru but always been a huge fan. I love the 22b, probably my favorite of the Imprezas. The newer styles don't really do it for me either, I actually like the bugeye ones, and the 03-05 style a little bit.

 

What if the new STi looked like this?

 

I kinda like that, looks like its grinning a bit though lol.

Definately aggresive though, more so then the current STi.

Hatchback is a +1 as well.

 

Very,,,VERY nice,,,well worth the effort

 

looks good nice work

 

Looks like a gold bronze. When I think of gold I think STi wheel gold.
Actually looks good. I like it! Almost has a bronze/red.

Illusive, that thing is F-in gross. I saw those pics a little while back. The rear is so gross.
I think the whole car looks like a Daewoo Lanos

And that new WRX body style? Talk about stealing the new Chrysler Sebring look!!!

 

Here's a better example of the color... I'll get better pictures when it's not so cloudy and screwing up the color balance.

 

Ohh ya. Deff bronze. I like it though.

 

Yeah I just looked at the Subaru colored gold and it's a lot "golder" than mine. In the sunlight though it's definately more gold than bronze but today's crappy for pictures. I like the color though, doesn't stick out as much as the Subaru colored gold, in today's weather its got a real bronze/gun metal look to it.

 

Arisenfury,
great job! Love Subaru look big time. I was thinking about it when I was going through color choices befor buying my Fit! You pulled it off great!
I can't believe more people are not experimenting. We have, what, 4 maybe 5 of us (gold, white, black, black/red,.....)that tried it and it looks great.
What are you planing to do with lugnuts and center caps?

 

Same wing of the civic Type-R EP3...

And like a rover 200

 

wheels came out looking pimp
