That looks amazing! That is what I consider bronze. A lot of times when I see bronze wheels they’re so dark and more brownish looking than bronze.

Exactly! I was very descriptive with what I was looking for in the color and they narrowed it down it right away, came out better than I imagined.

Beautiful color. Looks great!

Too bad they couldn't powder coat the black part of the center caps, but still looks good.

I’d get some center caps from a normal civic, with the raised chrome “H” logo and have them paint matched (sprayed the same color as the wheels) including the “H” logo. I bet that wheel shop can do it. That’d look totally sick.

I actually asked for them not to be paint matched, took it out of the playbook of Acura with their ITS bronze wheels. They told me I could bring it back to get done after if I wanted too since it was part of the price. I’ll see if it grows on me or it bothers me 🤣🤣 Appreciate the love

It was 800 bucks! They took care of the powder coat as well as fixed two bent wheels.

I was on the same boat, but I really like the OEM wheel design. My biggest concern was ensuring they got the color right and after talking a bit the guy knew exactly what I was looking for. Don’t know the brand of powder, but the color is Chrome Bronze with a Satin Finish.

I’m considering either painting the stock wheels, or jumping to the Apex forged which are very similar to stock but in a more desirable offset.

For me the OEM look is excellent, personally the wheels I would like to splurge on in the future are going to be the 19” spoon wheels. Aside from that I rather allocate the 3k+ into other parts for the car, my biggest hesitation was ensuring they got the color right, they gave me a good sense of security in knowing what they were doing and they came though.
