go with silver-you don't standout that much and it looks clean unlike black.

Re: What color to paint my EG? (slowerthanu)
I wanted to paint it gunmetal and put a carbon fiber hood on it so people wouldnt notice it that much... But then my friend just bought an gunmetal IS300 and brags about it... I might stick with my plans, or i'll go with the silverstone with the carbon fiber hood.... Anythoughts??? anyone has any pictures of either one of theses... Of course i'll post a picture of my car when it comes out...

I may get totally flamed for this but i think the new factory metalic green color on the Honda Insight is really cool. I'm thinking of painting my hatch that color.

Re: What color to paint my EG? (KawiGreenHYBRID)
yeah, I'm pretty sure. it's an ff-squad car. I just love the way that all the colors go together for some reason. way low-key too. nothing too flashy. no offense..but with my exhaust as loud as it is, flashiness is the last thing I need.

Honda S2000 Silverstone Metallic all the way! Any color that is gunmetallish would look sweet on your EG. The Altezza gunmetal is pretty dope too. Here are two gunmetal hatches...
