I used an aluminum high-temp paint I had left over from my Mustang build, but now that I found this site I think I want to go with a more original color. What are you guys using? (spray paint)

If you want the original Honda Candy color paint go to vintagehondapaint.com. He sells complete kits for $128. The guys name in Donnie and he has all the Honda colors even cloud silver which is what is used on mini trail rims and engine covers. I had some stainless steel paint left over from doing my car wheel covers. I used it to do my rims and hubs and it looks good, just a little darker than the cloud silver but I don't care because I'm not a fanatic. Have fun

PS you can get away with using spray cans on your rims and hubs. But don't use spray cans on the frame and swingarm. The best results are obtained with an HVLP professional gun and a compressor.
