I will probably be re-painting my car in the spring and I'm wondering what color I should go with...

I've had 3 different reds now, and I'm getting kinda tired of the same basic color, but then again, the Pro does lok good in red....

So give me your opinion please.

Silver is yummy

What about an electrom blue or yellow? I really think the electron blue would look sweet though.

I should also explain the background to my decision for changing colors... I want to have a color that'll score me points in a show ie: Orange or metal flake. Otherwise, I want to get a color that'll allow me to make the Pro look more luxurious, something that'll match with a beige interior, which is why I put down dark green as an option. I would like to give my car this style:

Which prolly would'nt be hard if I re-paint it dark green... But if anyone can think of a different color that'll give it the same look (a shade of red would be cool, cuz it'll cost alot less), please let me know... If you have pics, post 'em!!

Thanks!

For a show, I'd pick something like neon green or orange with some art on it. As for a diff color, I'd still stick with silver but thats just my opinion.

I don't mean one of those crazy colors that make the car look like a snotball rolling down the street, I mean like a trick paintjob that'll catch the judge's eye for the quality, not the kind that you can't help but look at cause it's so bright. Those colors are cool, but that's not the look I'm going for... That Accord prolly might not look as good in a fluorescent color....

You're right, silver is yummy!
I'd just be worried about an aftermarket silver paintjob, 'cause supposedly, they're the easiest to botch... They often end up looking more grey than silver. But I will take it into consideration, thanks!

Actually.... Silver with a darker beige interior could be interesting.... hhmmm....

How about a flip flop or cameleon color that changes(green to gold to orange to purple). Something like that.

thats a NICE *** COLOR. well after seeing that, bizob you should paint it midnight blue and get this rear bumper to complete ur kit.. (i forgot where i found that pic from, ran into some weird body kits in some other country)

i really like the red on your car... so, if you were going for show.. i'd stick with the red flake idea. that's my 2 cents.

I don't like hondas so nix on the accord Silver with pearl over it wouldnt look shabby either. It'll keep the silver shiny and any nicks will be on the pearl.

Hey High Body, nice front bumper!!
And nice color! I really like that color, but considering that you have the same kit as me... I dunno.... My car is all about being different, so getting the same color with the same kit might go against that.... Then again, there are a few 323s in europe that have my kit and are red.... I'll definately consider it though, it's gorgeous! How much did it cost you? Is it Latex? That would go REALLY well with a tan interior....


And for the other ideas with the pearls and cameleons, I like those kinds of paint jobs too, but I am on a restricted budget. A guy that lives near me had it done and it cost him 8000$ for the paint. It's 1200$/Litre, too, so it's not that thick....

how about 2001 ferrari silver? hot stuff to me

I like the Ferrari silver! But for your car I would have to say that the red flake or even an orange with a pearl red over it to give it that true show and custom look. I'll see if I can find a picture of what I mean.......
