    Default what color???

    Ok, so ive found someone to paint my car and im trying to see what color in IA's opinion looks better. This isnt necisarilly going to decide for me. I just want to see what everyone generally thinks about it and im pretty sure ill either be getting drag dr30's (black) or si's on it
    silver

    gunmetal

    white

    thunder gray metallic

    titanium metallic

    i was also thinking maybe midori green but i couldnt find it on my car

    i don't like any of those colors. They are too common and no1 will notice a difference.

    Try coffee color or mocha. Shits hawt.

    But since you did ask out of THOSE colors, I'd say white. Championship White.

    white sounds good but look at other colors you might find something you like that no one else has

    I'd say pick from another manufacturer OEM color. This is the chance to stand out a little more.

    Out of the colors listed, I say white.

    Like everyone else though I would try something different. Also, If you are trying to go with an OEM Honda color....check this thread out...its got ALL the OEM 6g Civic colors

    and why not try walking into or calling an autobody supply store like autocolor in marietta (800.336.3170) ? im sure they can at least direct you on where to get the code, if not give it to you.

    here you go....
    http://www.autocolor.com/storelist-atl.htm
    pick one closest to you...
    (and no im not on their payroll, i just like their stores)
