Bally_Ep3 - NHB Premier

Might sound a little weird but I just mixed it until I found the shade I wanted lol ! The rubber has arrived so wheels should be sorted this week!
Cheers for the comments guys
 
The bronze looks awesome in the Sunlight but still fairly sedate in for daily use ( as I didn't want ' in your face , as such ) just polished them up today. What wax does people recommend for wheels ?

Excited :)
 
I'll be sure to get some more photos of them this week, but they wont be on my car until the first week of april ( thats when im going dropping it and adding camber.

What Rim Wax does people recommend?

I'd love to see a photo when you get them on and shined up! Where did you get them done? How much, if you don't mind me asking?

My Friend did them for me, and we used a local Paint dealers (Rainbow Paints) to accquire the paint :) We used just under 1/2 Litre, and then finished in a Satin Lacqeure.

In the light you can really see the colour of the bronze. (After realising that the Volks/Rotas etc.. are Anodized) I decided that aiming for a colour match wasnt going to be what i was after, as i'd only be upset if they wasnt close. So i went for my own choice which i was impressed with, There are some light marks which are very very faint from the previous kerbing but we didnt want to remove too much 'Parent' material from the wheels as im unsure how they withstand structurally.

Result - Im Very happy with the finish/colour and cannot wait to put them on the car :)

Quick Update ; Got round to wiring up my Foglights ( As mine didnt have the upgrade ) Looks great and they actually have a function now, as ive had them in nearly 3 weeks without them being wired up to the fuse box ( which is fairly easy to be honest)

Ps. I am going to have a Foglight kit for sale soon ( For prefacelift EP3 Model )

Cheers

Pics of the refurbished wheels are necessary. :D

I might catch you down at Mimms; Oh man, it's pretty massive BTW, one of the largest, if not the largest UK Honda meets... you describe it like it's a pint down the pub and mooch around the cars in the car park/beer garden... ha ha :)

Do come and say hi. :)

Yee that's what I like about it , plus its not to in your face like some colours I see around ( personally not the style I like )
I want to go lower though , I think the camber makes it appear not as high though.
 
Fitted a JDM rear anti roll bar yesterday (with Super Pro Uprated bushes)
15mm Spacers all round, which give it that more stanced look, but i think more Camber on the rear is required as i keep catching my tyres at fast cornering (Maybe adjust the Coilovers)

Painful trip to Japfest, as i fitted 15mm Spacers all round the day before and hadnt tested what the car would be like. With 4 people in the car, thet tyres scraped on most bumps in the road, so i have since taken the rear 15mm spacers off for the time being, waiting on a solution of which is proberly going to be rolling the rear arches.
 
Reviving an old thread, not sure if ill get an answer but what colour bronze was used on the wheels?
Looking for the right bronze without being too light or gold looking

Ok just seen it was a random mix until the right colour was found
