Championship White FL5 Civic Type R w/ paint matched spoiler wing and OEM wheels

[Kyofu]

I love the look of the body matched spoiler, definitely something I'd want to do as well so good to see pics of it first haha.

Can't be too much...but the results are amazing. Maybe 250/wheel prep and paint?

Who would you ask to do this ? A wheel shop or paint shop ?
Thank you for your time ! Thinking about doing this for my summer tires.

i'd say a wheel or tire shop that you trust...they can probably source a good paint or powder coating shop.

powder coating would be the way to go

I'm not crazy about them in general, either. Though I do like how they looked on the NSX Type R.

On a Type R?! But, but...

Probably not the only one but likely in the minority. Championship White with white wheels is iconic.

White spoiler. White wheels. The way it should be.

This is how it should've been from factory!

No

LOL! I like the color matching, but would tire of trying to keep the wheels clean!

This could definitely vary by region but I seriously looked into powder coating my Si's wheel black. It was 350ish per wheel for just a wheel drop off. Dropping the car off and having them do everything was more like 500ish/wheel. That was pretty consistent from the shops I got estimates from.

I always picture Jessie's clownish Jetta from F&F when I see white on white. I know we're supposed to be rooting for Jessie against the evil Tran and his "Honda 2000", but I thoroughly enjoyed watching him get his ass kicked.

Something about the FL5 I don’t like with white wheels. It may be the matched wing as well that’s throwing me off.
