Black with red looks awesome, but common.

I havent seen any Civic with black and blue.

I like the bronze color. Can't you just get some touch-up paint and clean them up a bit?

+1... but... if you repaint them completely i voted gunmetal with red lip, just cause black seems to blend in too well with the wheel well and you can't see detail at all unless in direct light

yeah i like the bronze aswell, but their powdercoated and it'd probably be hard to match it. i'm also kinda tired of nicking the paint. just a slight tap with a tool will leave a mark.

If you do that one, don't paint, just mask off the bronze and then paint

I really like the grey and the gunmetal with the red lip. the brozne (original color) looks good also though. if its just one rim thats messed up maybe you can just repaint the one rim?
