Most of you guys are too nice with the comments.

I think if your coupe's black or white, it would look sweet. but a blue coupe?

Not a good idea to be doing it on a lease car. even though you might be able to take the paint off before you return it, the dealership would probably zoom it in to see what you've done to the vehicle. then you'll regret.

Stock 19" rims cost a pretty penny. It would of been much much cheaper to have purchased a used set of wheels and use them for a year then resell them. Sure you would of forked out $2K upfront but you'll recoupe at least half that when you resell them. Now once your 1 yr lease is over, you might be hit with big money for damaged wheels if you can't get them looking like factory finish.

for real man. if they arent perfect, you will prolly have to pay stealership prices for new ones. I dunno how much that is, but for a set, i would imagine it would be over $3k...

take some daytime pix of the entire car.

Looks nice so far. You do need to pain inside of the fron wheel.

He did say he has hookups at the dealership!!! Black is not my cup of tea, but my cousin painted his RX-8 wheels black and he continued to think it looks better, so I just learned to accept other people love different things. Good luck everyone.
