I'd leave it silver too... but I'd get rid of the rear bumper moldings.

the reason y i did the rear bumper moldings was because its rare finding a coupe that has SiR Bumper ( The rear bumper is OEM, and there is a SiR Coupe.

( Or else i'll just do a Type r style front lip fake ctr headlights and a si grill... haha. like everyone else) just wanna be different.

Champ. White FTW

Another suggestion might be Midori Green (not right for everyone).. I can't think of any coupes on here painted that color

If you really want a change, i'd say black or gunmetal.

I'd paint it another shade of grey or gunmetal. Something original though.

I'd get some solid black Spoon style mirrors and color match the hood as well

I can't stand unpainted moldings. I would go black or as others have suggested, gunmetal.

VSM is a great color. The bumpers look sweet, and it's something I haven't seen yet in my town. My Civic is also VSM, and I wouldn't change it for anything. I say keep it as it is and save your $$$ for something else.
