RE: painting small parts

ressurrecting an old-ish thread here.
I bought Taffeta White duplicolor paint and sprayed the nozzles. It is not a perfect match but it's pretty close. I think it cleaned it up a LOT.

I think the fog lights are OEM.
The wheels are from the Honda Factory Performance package on the '05 Civics. They are 16s. I've had them on for two weeks and I loooooove them!

I was thinking about doing the exact same thing. Could you take another pic of it and tell me what "marker" you used. You could PM or just post a new thread for it.

RE: painting small parts
baker, remington is right about the wheels, they do not come in black, though.
The marker lights are "they were there when I bought the car" brand... ummm... I can take some closeup pics after work! actually if you're really interested I can get in touch with my friend who sold me the car, and see if he remembers.
