I was wondering if I should buy these if I get the price I am shooting for?

Would you guys happen to know if the black is easy to take off? And if so, do you think they would look alright after it is taken off? I fear that the clear coat was removed and therefore the would look dull after I'd take off the paint. Thanks in advance.
depends on the price.. you could probably clear coat them again too if needed
I got my five spokes from a 93 or 94 del sol but anyway they were scratched to high heaven so I took the clear and the silver paint inside the spokes off and polished them down till they looked decent then I just cleared them which worked but I got a little bubble effect on the wheel but nothing noticable unless the light hits it right and even then.. oh and I sandblasted the insides of the spokes. They look P.I.M.P. so to speak. They actually look very similar to those acura ones there. just look at my cardomain or my pic below\/ \/ \/ \/
you could have them sandblasted and powdered in whatever color you want! :D
Yes, this is true. However, I think what I'll end up doing is removing it myself, polish it myself, and clear coat it myself and see what it looks like from there. If not, I'll take it somewhere's professionally.
and replace the word "ACURA" with "HONDA" :D
ur not going to be "Mr. Stock" anymore :(
it IS still a stock part
not for an accord....
but it is honda oem :D
just cause honda made it doesn't make it "stock" :-p unless you wanna call a b20 engine in an accord stock :D
but it was stock...in an accord somewhere in the world. and yeah...honda for me means stock lol
They came in stock accords, as far as i'm concerned that's stock :) Besides when the guy next to you asks what you got in there you can tell him "It's all stock". :)Quote:

Oh, I know. I don't think I'll be able to hold the "Mr. Stock" title for much longer...suspension and wheels are coming my way. But I would never stray further than Honda OEM for my wheels. The guy said his reserve for these wheels are $150 and then $65 shipped. I think that is a hell of a steal, especially on shipping (since it's usually $100 more). All I'd have to do is remove the black and re-polish and re-clearcoat. Sounds good eh?
cant wait to see the car with all the parts ur getting! about time man1! but sigh im gong to miss the stock look
I paid $250 for mine, great wheels, they look good then the car is dropped too.
Those ones look in pretty good condition but yeah depends what price he/she wants.
thats what they run for here
Those will look dope yo!
cant wait to see them on!
so youre just going to restore them back to stock?
ya what are ur plans witht he car??
I like them black, just looks like a shitty rattle can paint job tho.
Yes, I plan on restoring them, re-polishing and re-clearcoating. They will be complimented with Kuhmo Ecsta's ASXs, H&R Sport springs (already have) and Tokico HPs (ordering).
well they dont look that bad...i got mine for 280 with 30% thread left on tires....i feel kinda riped off since one rim is bent but i got it balanced but you can still feel it when you are going 60mph...yeah better hope they are not bent or anything
