I Was Just Wondering...About the Night Hawk Black Pearl Paint!
Anyone notice the blue specks in the paint? The CL Type S broshure shows the paint as solid black.
Yep. Depending on light and angle, it can be anywhere from black to a deep indigo blue.

My '98 GSR was called Flamenco Black Pearl and it had blue metallic flecks of paint in it...in sunlight, it looked like a black car with blue specks. My buddy got a new '03 Accord sedan in the Nighthawk Black Pearl and it looks like there is more blue in it...in the light, the car has a very dark blue tint to it.

I have this color also. As mentioned above the angle of the light has to be right before you can see it.
I have a little scratch and dent on my fender I need fixed. I have yet to find someone I trust to match the color. That blue is a bitch to match and spray.

Yep. When my car was re-painted because of hail damage they could not match the color and ended up painting the whole car a more true black. I believe it looks much better now without the blue in it!

When it's cl;ean in bright light you see the blue "pearl" effect, however on mine it's getting harder and harder because of all the rock chips in the front.
