(have tried searching the forum and unable to find 'em)

Does someone have images of an Acura RDX Fathom blue pearl with black rims.
I'm in the market for a 2017 Acura RDX. My wife loves the FBP and I love the the black rim (kind of enhances the sporty look on it).
Would be a happy marriage if the union looks good, yet unable to find any photos of the same.

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Is the black rim a factory option? Also you have to realize that fathom blue pearl is a VERY uncommon choice for the rdx, so finding pics of one and with black wheels is going to be very difficult. For whatever reason royal blue pearl very hard to find for the 1G rdx as well. The person that bought mine actually chose it over many other because of the color rarity. So good choice on the color, also love the greystone interior! It is very creamy!

 

This is Fathom Blue Pearl?

Congratulations on the color choice, it's amazing...

By far my favorite paint color, maybe the best color I've ever seen!!!

Black wheels should look good as long as their glossy... Like this!!!

 

Nice colour. Same as mine and I love it, especially after having grey or black only in the past. Those rims are smoking hot, but despite what others say, I like the Elite/Advance rims.

 

Fathom blue pearl is my favorite color for the new rdx. Lol but I really can't understand the name.

 

Fixed it for you.

You're right. The name makes no sense unless one equates the fathom (a measure of water depth - about 6 feet) with deep blue water. Otherwise it translates into "Understand blue pearl" which makes zero sense.

 

Many car ads have been featuring similar blue color cars, Infiniti and Lexus to name just 2. My FBP TLX SH-AWD Tech gets compliments but no chicks like a certain RDX owner gets.

 

You sir deserve a trophy for that one

I did think about using that pun, but decided to steer clear. But now I feel like I should have used it haha.

I was thinking fathom, as in to understand, how can you understand blue pearl. They couldn't do "ocean blue pearl", "baltic blue pearl", "pacific blue pearl", "azure blue pearl", "oasis blue pear"....I can go on.

 

Back on topic. OP - here you go. Mad Paint skillz.

 

After you die (i.e. six feet under) your nail beds turn blue. Maybe that is the blue they are looking for since a fathom is six feet.

 

Well that was more morbid than what I am usually used to reading. But right on! Seriously, it is like Acura HQ thought, how can we make it sound good? Then someone is like let's use a really sophisticated sounding word and go from there.

 

 

That's what happens when you are using a crappy Lenovo laptop with a gawdawful touchpad and a German Shepherd nudging your elbow
