Does anyone have a 95-98 SE / LE with painted wheels.  I have the silver moss color and thought it would look cool with titanium colored or bronze colored wheels.  It would be done professionally so I'm not worried about the quality, just how the color would look.  Any opinions / pictures would be great.  Thanks. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

Did you do your own paint or have a shop spray them?  They look good  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

I was thinking about a slight color change when I get new tires next time.

You got  your wheels powdercoated camppain?  If so, is it really subtle?  It looks somewhat stock..

the 240 wheels i painted using duplicolor wheel paint and a clear coat it did come out very very nice i must say. people do confuse it for powdercoat inpeson also. not a bad 10 buck mod if you wanna call it that.

questions.. if you have it done by a shop... because right now im trying to get my car to look as if it came out of the dealer! i just had 2 dents fixed... and my fender replaced and repainted the car Red again..... looking to replace my seats (front) so.. if i do that with the wheels would be good.. but..

1- How much would one spend having something like dat done??

2- Would that fix some minor scratches on the alloys?

Thank You
