My friend has pearl white w/ blue tint on his 2.3 CL....looks great

It's like white throughout the day, but when you see a sun reflect off the car, you see a blue like, thin coat or something....blue tint! haha

I say his paint job is great....pearl white is definitely a great color choice

I would get it, but he has it, and hes hookin me up on the paint job for $350, so I can't get that

Keep posting colors guys! Right now I want like, nighthawk Black Pearl, or something like that, something dark!

They never made a 1st gen cl in silver, and I think that would go nice with the tailights....plus it's easy as all hell to maintain.

You have to remeber if you get it painted a different color you gotto do underthe hood, which means taking out the engine, the door jams, I mean do you wantto do that much work? I was going to do mine a different color but decided not to for the fact that pulling your engine, carpet ect... is way to much work.

Pulling out engine and CARPET? damn thats goin extreme. When i switched from white to blue, i got all my jambs done and everything, but under the hood i had them do it black, and i didnt even bother with yanking up interior shit. Who cares?

Dark colours are the way to go. Midnight red, black, dark blue.....They're a whole lot more work to keep clean, but when they are..... gawd danm.

Adding pearls adds a different dimension too. I hear guys talk about adding pearls to the clear though. Thats almost like making it a tri-stage. If you want to add pearls, just put it in the base. It's a whole lot easier to match when it needs to be repaired. (WHEN, not IF.)

Katana- Whats the code for your new colour? is it the NSX's blue? I LOVE your car now!

To me the simplest colors look the best. TAke the base colors such as blu, red, black and work with that. I dont think blue is a good idea cuz katana has a very hot and very original car. I think if you go with the Pearl White it would look really nice.
