Your input.. Painting the MS kit??

I have the OEM MS kit and as you all know the bottom part of the kit has a gunmetal color.. i was thinking of painting them red (i know, like mikeb) because i was thinking of getting bronze colored wheels... it didn't look right w/ the gunmetal.. what are some of your suggestions?

also, anyone have any luck finding color matched paint instead of taking it to a bodyshop?

I love having the whole kit in red
I think you have the right idea painting it red if you want bronze rims

try searching under sevenstock because they had a red rx8 with ms kit and bronze rims

Why not leave it gunmetal and get some gunmetal rims instead?

Better with gunmetal rims than bronze on red IMO.
