Aimed for coffee&cream:

[rbf]

Well Soon I'll have my next hatch project going and it will need to be painted.
I have went over so many colors in my head.Midori green, DAP and a few other colors.But I have settled on a nice coffee and cream color.More dark than light but not brown, It is more along the lines of the a crx I seen in a mag a few years back.(pictured)(off honda-tech)
I have only 2 set's of wheels picked out and I am not sure if I'd like to color match the wheel and keep the lips polished/machined or keep the wheels black w/polished/machined lip?.
The first and main set of wheels I have been eying are the AXIS og-san's(1inch lip) and the second wheels are the Rota rb's(blackracing/enkei/other) copies.

If anyone has some input I'd like to hear it.Choosing wheels for a car to make the appearance that much better is always rough for me.
Thanks for any help.:cheers:

That CRX is history.

Stupid gangster lean radiator. Fail.
US WW front bumper with JDM headlights. Fail.
VIN plate added on a race car. WTFail.

Oh nevermind, you weren't looking for input on that car. I almost never like color-matched wheels.

I like the color. Don't color match the rims though. Go with black with a polished lip.

[Can't wait until y'all see the color I picked for my Si.]

Yea that car was used to show the color close to what I am aiming for nothing more.The factory almond cream is way to light for my taste.
I might go for the rota rb's 15x7 +25mm offset keep the lip paint the wheel black.I can not find the 15x7 4x100 that color only the 13x8.All of the 4x114's and 5x100's come in black.
:no: Maybe I can find them some where.

thanks for the reply's everyone.


I know you chose that pic only for the color. That doesn't mean car isn't garbage tho :lmfao:


I think that color will look good on a car that is well done. Just remember not to take shortcuts like the person who's car you posted and it will look great. :goodjob: There's another crx that color on H-T that everyone think is so "godly" You may want to look at some ef pic threads there to get a better example.

And now the color has been changed.I do not see many coffee/cream colored cars around but I just had to change my mind.The color I chose was amazing but I found a color from a 2009 vehicle I just had to have on my next project.I wont say yet but hopefully I can start a build thread soon as I find a clean enough 88-91.

[southside]

So you dont have the car yet?

[rbf]

So you dont have the car yet?

Nope in the market.:goodjob: I've owned my fair share though.Im always stuck on what I want between 88-89 integra's/88-91 civic's and 90-93 itnegras.Since they change stylings between years I have a hard time choosing.hahahhahahahhahaa

[rbf]

I've been wanting a different color than what you would normally see going down the road for years but never get around to doing it.
