Angry Check out my NEW wheels

i'm getting some OEM wheels painted bronze. I picked out a House of Kolor Kandy paint. The Body shop called me today to have me take a look at them. The painter said they didn't quite match the color chip. They REALLY DON'T match. Don't worry I'm not putting them on the car. I called the painter back, and he told me the wrong Mid-coat wat used and that's what cause the wrong result. The body shop will be repainting them tommorow.

Just proves what a "science" painting has become. Did you see the pictures up of Hal's car from the drive? After seeing the bronze in person I was really impressed. I hope they turn out they way you like next time!

Too bad those aren't 22's, you'd have some pimpin ass rims there.
Also reminds me of the Green Gobblin.

In retrospect you could probably sell them for twice as much to some lucky person in a lime green honda somewhere...

Wow. Those look like a glow worm puked on them. Hope they fix 'em up right for you.

BTW, Slow, I've got rattle in my top and was hoping you could help...

Turning the radio up fixes most all rattles


If not I have been known to work on a few S2K's

I thought I remembered hearing "Hi I'm Slows2k, I'm a mechanic for Honda and don't ask me about rattles" at one of our events.

Thanks for your patience Slows2k, we always appreciate your help.
