Paint Code Needed
Hey guys im trying to get the paint needed to paint my car but im having trouble getting the paint code/ name of the paint i need (everywhere i look someone calls it something different). Im wanting to paint it either the blue that came on the 99-00 civic SI or the blue that the new Toyota Tundras come in. I get a really really really good deal on PPG paint so i need to know the codes. any help is appreciated and will be REPPED.
examples of the colors.....
i dont know the code of the SI but im pretty sure the name is Electric Blue Pearl. not sure if it helps though...
well ive found this to be the most common to describe the civic color...
the code is B-95P "electron blue pearl" but i have clue how to get that paint color from PPG cause they use different codes ive called them but they need their code

you should be able to give them that code and they look it up. call another ppg place and ask them
just mugen si blue.
go to a Honda dealer, look inside the drivers side door and get the code.

Correct, it's b-95p, electron blue pearl. not sure what the toyota is, it's a little bit lighter than honda's. they should be able to mix it for you with the factory code.

are you painting the accord
yep
You going to change the lip on your wheels too? IMO I would think about going with a red, It would go really well with your valve cover. But again just my opinion

call the dealer, or just look on that sticker when u open the door on any blue si. and people on here to tell u if they got one im sure some body got one.

yeah i have already ordered the paint, i got the code.... The accord is going to be painted Electron Blue Pearl (fell in love with that color years ago and always wanted it) with color matched lips on the wheels. Should be done in about 3 weeks I'm just making sure i get the bodywork done perfectly first
That's cool bro. Hopefully it'll go well with valve cover. Of course if ya don't like it ya could always spray it with the same theme in matching color. It's going to look good either way man. I am going to try to get a hold of that guy about you working on his car monday, I'll PM ya when I get the details.

oh, and Rakestraw should have a few books with nothing but paint samples and codes in it if ya ever need to know another color. If he still has them. The guy before him had them. They were in one of the desks.

yeah man hes still got all the old books i just finally found the book for the 2000 models. But yes the valve cover will also be mathced with the same airbrushing over it
