imbuilding a revell civic si and i picked british green for it as a color do yall think it will look good in that color?

Do you have a color chip? Im not sure if the car would look good in anything other than the basic colors (Is this the 1:25 Civic Si coupe?)

That's a matter of taste. I painted an EK (the 96-00 hatch) in Olive drab cleared for shine, and nobody but me liked it. But I love it. Paint your Civic however you like.

The Si was only available in Blue, Red, or Black from the factory. Green was for EX on down.

well i painted the model not british green but olive drab from tamiya. i love the result. as many now this is my first shot at painting a model. after a little scratch on the hood of a perfect finish i painted the hood flat black. it was the bestway too cover it up. cause turns out the paint was so soft it ruined a little bit of the finish. i have a little bit of chips on the left fender. but overall im happy with the result. Also i chose to make this an ex model with some si parts.
