If you're not looking to spend alot of money, personally I'd go with Captiva Pearl or Milano Red. Nice stock colors, still look great.

the original white is nice but if you have the money for a new job i say gun metal. i'm also looking into painting my car, its quite an investment but it also changes the whole look. just make sure you get a quality job or you'll regret it!

alot of people out here, including the jdm people are goin wit darker earthy colors.....like metallic greens, shades of grey and silver, gunmetal!!, dark reds.......i think bronze it gettin popular also. Look at european cars, i like the metallic colors they have, especially jags, and vw's
just my 2 cents

Re: painting eg hatch ...what color????? (TheRZA28)
Painted mine in February. Took me a good 5 days to strip, prep and paint it... if it comes down to doing it cheap or expensive, definitely choose to pay more... I gave mine 5 coats... most people tell me it shows too...
I went for Lamborghini's yellow... they call it Giallo. Sure you dont have to paint it yellow... and i've got this whole fetish thing for yellow cars on white rims... but thats just me...
And for those going on about jdm this and jdm that...
My car is a '92 eg6 sir.... being ex japan, its about as jdm as you could possibly get i guess... (big deal) ... it was originally Milano red. If that is in fact a "JDM" colour, then hey, every nana with a milano red civic that goes shopping on Sundays in the US is a jdm freak too huh...
Give the jdm crap a break...
tidy cars with subtle and purposeful mods
ricers and jdm stereotypers

Re: painting eg hatch ...what color????? (EG6-SiR)
personally im not a fan of greens at all,
but i really like olive greens.
something dark, non metallic, or maybe metallic.
not exactly like the benen hatch color, but something a little more gritty.

I'd paint it that color on the rsx-s, i think its called desert sand metallic, i could be wrong, but i think that color would be cool as hell
