yes, definitely. i've seen a 96 roma red civic with a milano red 00 spoiler, you can see the difference from far away. roma red is a lot darker than milano, and the difference is pretty obvious when you have both colors on the same car.

how does that work? roma red is a hatchback-only color, and milano is a coupe-only color. you saw a coupe spoiler on a hatch? or was the car painted?

nope, the car was the stock color. it was a 96-98 ex coupe. yes it was roma red, the difference between the 2 colors is pretty noticeable.

The milano red has more of a pearl in it. You do not want to mix the colors on a car. Unless you are looking to go with the ghetto look.

I agree, I'd say the Roma red is a darker red, while the Milano is brighter. I believe they also made GSRs in Milano red..
