Well, I am so undecided as to what color to paint my 1983 Accord LX Hatchback, so I want to take a poll. I will add up the totals from this site and 2 others and paint it that color.
I will change the color of the interior accordingly so as not to clash with the exterior, so my current color makes no difference.
Yellow? White? Silver? Red? Plum Crazy Purple? What ideas do you have?
Peral white or a midnight blue would look sick but maybe like a mid red also
Plum crazy could actually look pretty good with freshened molding and some black wheels.
i was going to paint my 82 hatch handicap sign blue (The dark signs not the lighter blue signs)

It is currently some sort of blue, but no shine anywhere and bad weathering. It is completely unsalvageable so I am trying to find a different color.
A lot of blue is offered up so far and silver and black.
I am wondering what people would choose as an "off the wall" color too. Championship yellow (I saw on an '07 Suzuki)? Orange Crush? Copper (I saw on a 1st gen Acura CL)? Porsche Red?

Sometimes i think its not the color what matters but how the paints condition is.That yellow looks nice too.

Here's a few pictures of mine after it was painted. I think the body works well with really bold colours, metallic or not. Beige, light blue, copper, not so much, though I did see a hatch in a metallic grey or silver that looked really sharp. I really dig met reds, deep blue, black, hell, plum crazy with black accents would look good too. Even the metallic brown looked good on these. The lame bland colours sucked, though.
Edit: Did you ever find a dash?
ICHIBAN!

Silver looks best on a 2gee hatch IMO. I would like to see a Super Platinum Silver 2g. Spectra Blue Mica would look good too. As for off-the-wall colors I like that pearl blue from the Vector Avtech
Newer Lexus GX470's have a nice mid to dark red pearl that would look pretty slick. I picture it with flat black spyder rims trimmed in chrome. Wait, now that I think of it, that's what I want to do with mine, so never mind.
