If I come across an ej I plan to paint it the stock purple. Too many people paint black/white/red/blue. Do something different!

I'm not too big a fan of copper, but as long as it's not the 350z orange (the only orange I really see on hondas) it should look nice.

What color is your engine bay? That should be the color of the outside. Unless you plan on ripping the engine out.

If I didn't like Electron Blue so much I would have my car painted a mercedes color called blackberry. If I ever get another civic I will definitely paint it that color. You should check it out...

Can't go wrong with Championship White, it just looks clean and sexy.
