When you paint your car's exterior, what will you paint? Some people have been painting the whole car a solid color, and some actually left some parts oem black. When i painted my car(taffeta white), i left my moldings, lip, door handles, mirrors, side skirts, grill, and license plate tray black. see picture below. This car is clean from the fender to bumper for me, but i'm not digging the side skirts, door handles, or the side door moldings..

does anyone know of the OEM paint layout for Hondas/Acuras--more specifically 94-01 tegs and 92-00 civics?

All one color is the cleanest. Here is my old car before and after:\
