What color should i paint my civic?????

I recently came apon $1200 by cleaning out the garage and selling the crap i found. I decided to use the money to purchase a body kit and and paint job. I've settled on the buddy club body kit. Don't wory, its not played out over here in Florida like it is in Cali. Everybody over here gets those Bitz body kits that look like they have buck teeth(not a slam on owners of the Blitz b/c, I just dont prefer it). What i need is opinions on the color i shoul paint it. I've found three colors i like: plain white, escalade blue, and that orange color that comes on 350Zs. By the way my car is a '92 civic hatch. Oh yea, if anyone has an estimate on the cost to paint the body and engine bay, plz post it. If $1200 isnt enough, it'll at leat go a long way toward it. Thanks for any help.

I think you should get the NS black that comes on mustangs, damn, it is so close to mirror finish. Or get electronic pearl blue, with Si wheels, i saw one before like that, damn, it was sweet

I live about 30 mile outside of Panama City. To 95dxcivic, the blue pearl is a good idea, but there are too many balck civics around here. On the subject of the Si wheels, I plan on getting 17s for a future big brake kit. Still, if anyone knows about how much it would cost to paint the body and engine bay, please post. Thanks for the suggestions. Peace

My opinion to you is to paint your car a color that no one around you has. Be original. Paint it a color that might describe you or shows how you feel. There's a lot of options out there. If you find someone real cool to paint your car, they might even hook you up by mixing different colors to come up with something totally different. Take your time and pick a color you can be happy with for a while. $1200 can take you a long way, especially if you find the right place.

due that kinda has alot to do with your personality and the cars personality as well. like if your car is really fast or just a daily driver i would go with the blue. it will make it look good and if its fast thta will make it look better. plus white is hard to keep looking good if you drive it all the time. if its a show car then go with the white you just have to keep the whole package looking sharp to make plain white look spectacular.like if you add a lil silver or a lil pearl to it it would pop.if you like flash go with the orange.good for show and showing of. personally i like the house of kolor pagan gold with lots of gold flake in it. but thats me . i love that sparkle.

I happen to have the luxury of looking fast and going fast but who cares if he does or not. Its his friggin car right? What are you Ricochet? The performance police?

Pink would definitly get attention but I would go with black

Re: What color should i paint my civic?????

Ricochet, you are an ass of the highest order, who likes to bully the kids in the Civic DX who worship your car, because of the motor you have in it.

I'm not letting a valid thread, with a valid question, get locked, because you happen to disagree with how the kid is spending his money, so I have deleted all your posts in this thread, and all quotes of it.

I see your Royal Assness posting vile crap like this again, as opposed to actually giving advice, as I happen to agree with your assessment, just not the way you're going about it, I will ban you.
