I can't tell what tsx look good in other than stock color, or a nicer/deeper gray, a whiter white, etc

i think the color should depend if your car is dropped and on rims or not. If it is, IMO you should get something bright, but if not, i would choose a darker color. I think red would be amazing. I wish my 09 was red..

You are talking $6K to $10K for a decent major color change. They practically will have to disassemble the car to get the door jams, trunk, hood spaces, etc. Plus striping and sanding, 15 layers of primer, 15 layers of paint, 15 layers of clearcoat... I'd think about it. Plus your VIN plate will not match the color. I would assume the car was wrecked if you try to resell... hurting the value.

Buddy mine doing it for 2k been in it for over 11 years trunk and hood are carbon fiber so no paint said take around two weeks thinking pearl white with blue pearl in it

And old school si blue is in running too

PyroDave

it is pretty similar to vbp...

if you're gonan do a custom paint job, go for somethign different...matte black imo looks cheap and ghetto. if you're gonna go for a matte color, i'd go with white.

for me, i'd get something that isn't a known acura/honda color. why spend that amount of cash for a color that's similar to another stock color?

isshinryu30

Yea we thought si blue but ith ice pearl purple thrown in as a layer

isshinryu30

dont do a matte color unless you have some quality drop. saw a matte black 328, bone stock, no drop, stock wheels. it didnt look that nice


on the other than, saw a matte gray c63, dropped, wheels, exhausts. it was a beast

PyroDave

i like camo. heres a 5 series.

^ Nice car, but matte to me looks like a primer car waiting for paint. And Ed, the Ferrari (I think) looks like it ran into a cow's ass. The old adage "less is more."
