One original and the other was re-painted before i bought it with a slightly lighter metalic paint. But i am gonna also have it painted championship white when i do have it done.

most of my car has the original paint. i had the hood painted the original color and the top of the front bumper painted black. the rest has been there since 89. oh yeah, i touched up a few spots but thats been it.

I just finished repainting my whole car because the paint was fading so bad the primer was starting to show through in spots.

The paint on my car is totally original. It isnt faded or chipped.
I polish the car every 6 months with AUTOGLYM extra gloss protector and it seems to last quite well.

New paint baby, you cant go better!!!

New paint, about 3 and a half years ago. It use to be the gray metallic color.

i upgraded from plain burgundy to metallic burgundy and the best part is it was FREE!

My car was supposed to be the charcoal grey but the previous owners did the worlds shittiest painjob on it!!! It is between a grey and a blue and its NOT shiny at all. There is overspray on the side moldings and the mudflaps! The paint even comes right off when im washing the car. I was going to repaint it but i just bought a white 89 EX-i with a nice paint job so forget that lol.

yes and i hate my poo poo gold

Totally original paint (NH512, White)... it looks pretty good for the age since it's been in a garage ALL of it's life. Too bad about the slight rust damage (two or three tiny spots) and a nasty dent and scrape that removed some of the paint on the driver-side fender and bumper.

New paint hehe wanted to stand out but now sooo many accords are painted that colour.............:(

[Grant2k]

my car may as well be totally origional but i still voted that most of it is origional. i have only -painted/ am painting- over the rear wheels where there is rust that has been repaired. i also painted my bumpers with Bumper Black, which is awsome stuff. i plan on repainting my car the origional "poo poo gold." i want the body to look like it's fresh from the show room. since it's lived outdoors for a lot of it's life, it's blotchy and ugly. i am going to power compound it this summer and see what kind of shine i can get out of it before the Flipped meet.

This is the third paint job i will do! Diffrent cars though :D

[Sabz5150]

Most of my paint is original... there's a few custom "rust brown" spots on my car, but other than that it's all original. I plan to repaint it the same color when I get the bodywork taken care of.

[AccordEpicenter]

stock paint... black n gorgeous when waxed

[Project-LXi]

Most of my paint is original. The trunk was repainted by a body shop before I owned the car, and they did a totally shitty job cause they used this clear enamel to make a flat black match factory looks (cheapasses) and after a year or so it started to crack and water got under it lifting chunks of enamel off at a time making the trunk of my car look really fucking ugly! :mad: Some of the paint on the top of the car is starting to fade to a shade of grey, I am going to try rubbing compound to get it looking decent again at least until I can afford a new paint job.

[Tref_LXI]

I have mine repainted with 3 coats of metallic burgundy, and a clear coat. I keep mine under a tarp when im not using it too, keeps the cats off and i dont get any scratches or sun rays damaging anything.

[Morpheus]

If only I had my car about 150000 miles earlier I bet the paint would be way better now. I have rust on the wheelweels, and I had to put foam in to pass inspections. All kinds of ding and scratches and imperfections.

[88accord]

my car was maroon but now its black and green
