all right boyz! the shitty assed hatchback is finnaly in the final stages! the car rolled in the shop an hour ago... and it wont be emeging until march! body work is getting started, but at a very slow pace... thats ok, im gettin a huge deal, because its not priority! so i have about a month untill its time to shoot the paint... so now the question is ... WHAT COLOR?

I know i want a dark blue, something nice and original, not just midnight blue... so i am open to sugestions...

my picks are
1 Viper Blue Metalic
2NOS bottle blue
3Electron Blue Pearl (CIVIC SIR)
4WRX blue

if you have any sugestions... post then with a pic or a link of where i can see this color.

don't have a pic or a link but the shop should have color chip books look at general motors indigo blue metallic. they put that color on all their trucks(full size and mini and suv)for a long time.nice dark color with a very nice metallic effect to it!

i think NOS bottle blue or WRX blue, i love both of those colours.
you must get a pearl paint with it red would look really good, but thats just what i think. are you putting stock bumpers back on?? get a 4th gen front bumper at least, but that again is just what i think. :)
