[Diana Nam]

some of you might already know from one of my post, i have all white konig retrack on my civic they're orignally white i was thinking about repainting or powder coating it in pink some of my friend said it would be too much some said maybe... idk im tore between just keeping them in origianl white or not. my car is main color is black and my color theme are pink and blue on a black car. also i found out that the retrack have been discontinued so i'll be holding onto these wheels for a while as well. any suggestions?? here is a picture of the wheels and the car

If you were to do that then paint the lip and grill black. PIMO the lip and grill should be black anyways.

Good god... the car is an eyesore right now, spend the money making the rest of the body nice before the rims. Just my opinion

Well here goes my .02 cents:
On the topic of the rims themselves, I would keep them white because I LOVE how white rims look on any car basically. I love how they seem to glow at night. Only way I'd suggest to paint them pink is if you ONLY paint the spokes pink, and the lip would be white. I would also suggest getting the lip painted black, but that's not what you asked about lol.
I guess what I hadn't considered is that these rims are discontinued... so I would make sure you're 100% sure you want to paint them before you actually do so.

ok these is one of the answer i was looking for, looks like majority of people said to keep them white, my brother said the same thing if i was to do them in pink do the centers pink and lip white. idk black lip look to plain and normal looking lol. i always like to be way different think outside the box.

before i bought that lip i was gonna get Carbon fiber one but at the same time i knew i was gonna be low and i didn't want to be scraping the living s**t out of it lol roads in the borough here in ny are really shitty

Just noticed you cut the rear bumper. Any reason why? I'm curious.

You better not be asking me because I'm not a big fan of accented colors for grills/lips/etc. I'm more for saying that a black grill, black lip, and pink wheels with white wheel lip works well.

i've looked at some pics on Google and it seems all the black civics that have pink wheels have black grill and black lip.... i never see the setup i was looking maybe you can photo shop it so see how it might look?? i never photo shoped a picture before so i idk how to do it.

Is that just a gnarly reflection or is that quarter panel beat all to s**t?

Yah. If you're asking opinion about a cosmetic change, id say save the money and buy new body panels that are straight.

well the hood i got fore free and plus i can cut it up and not feel bad about doing that to a really nice parts like the carbon fiber hood. i used to have carbon fiber hood trade for stock metal hood for sole purpose of cutting it up eventually i'm going have carbon fiber doors,trunk, and hood, the quarter panel was like that when i got it in a trade from my old eg coupe that i had we just had a major snow storm today.. 2 feet of snow 0.0 all in one day so when spring hits i'll probably get started on fixing that panel my fenders got a little dented from leaning on it to hard when putting the motor in and etc. my motor the that you see in the picture is basically close to being fully built only thing its doesn't have is sleeves and camshaft using stock for break in time.
