Please some one out there with a Blue 09 Mugen SI give me the paint code. The only thing I been able to gather is that is name Fiji Blue but I think I rather look for it by paint code. N.e help would be VERY appreciated since my car is going to the paint shop on mon 30th. Thanks in advance.

I was able to locate the info for the 08 mugen blue, I might sound stupid but is there really a 09 mugen si blue or were they only made in 08? and what are the difference in between them, are they both the same blue?if theres an 09,which I can't find.

Fiji Blue Pearl is B529P. There are probably a few alternates, but if you're getting the whole car sprayed it shouldn't matter. Make sure to go to the shop and look through their chip decks and choose whichever alternate you want.

Hey thanks for the INFO I really apreciated, do you happend to know if there was n.e mugen si made for 2009, b/c a friend told me that there was a 2009 but I can't find n.e info on them and would there blue be different? Again thanks for your help.

the manufacturers don't change the paint code formulas from year to year. if there's a 2007 fiji blue civic and a 2008 or 09 or whatever right next to it that's also fiji blue but looks different, it's just that they've used a different alternate. when they mix the paint and spray it at the factory there are always variations each time they mix it or spray it, whether it's a slightly different mixture or even a variation in the pressure of the automated spray equipment. that's the reason that there are always alternate chips supplied to shops, so that they can hold it up and decide which alternate needs to be used.

so no, unless you see a particular Si that's very different in color, then just pick whichever alternate looks best to you. you won't be able to pick out a specific '09 color unless it's listed as an alternate that was only used on '09 cars.

09MugenSi

2009 Blue Mugen Si's are not Fiji Blue. They are Dyno Blue Pearl according to the Wikipedia on Honda Si's.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_Si

Vehicle color selections:

* Fiji Blue Pearl (Si-exclusive color, replaced by Dyno Blue Pearl in 09)
* Galaxy Grey Metallic (replaced by Polished Metal Metallic in 09)
* Habanero Red Pearl (Si-exclusive color, replaced by Redline Orange Pearl in 09)
* Nighthawk Black pearl (replaced by Crystal Black Pearl in 09)
* Rallye Red
* Taffeta White
* Alabaster Silver Metallic

I like the 09 Mugen Si 4 door in Dyno Blue and I intend on getting one eventually. I saw one flying down Burbank Blvd. in Encino, CA about a month ago, and it looked and sounded NICE. Dude was on the throttle hard in 2nd or 3rd gear (maybe halfway or 3/4) and I liked what I saw. I believe the car was stock except for the Mugen cat-back.

I cannot afford a new Mugen right now, but I'm hearing from my local Honda dealer that the 2011 Hondas will be smaller in width due to new Japanese requirements. I'm wondering what is in store for the new Si. I'd like to buy one with 0 miles on it but will buy a used 09 if I am forced to.

My current ride is an 87 Accord LX-i. I've had four of them and I LOVE them. All have been LX-i fuel injected. I'm all about the i Hondas now (and I used to drive a Camaro V8 700R4 that I built a 355ci motor for and a 300zxTT 5spd running 15psi on pump fuel). I have neither of those cars anymore and am gunning for a blue Mugen Si.

Years ago this internet friend of mine built up an RSX with his teenage son. He bought quality parts like a Toda header and Toda exhaust. Is Toda still good parts?

Oh, my first post on Honda-Tech...
