he's not being a dick, it's really just up to you. And is this an ej1 or ej8, because there's a big difference. Anyway, I'm a fan of gunmetal or a dark grey from some different models.

Taffeta white. It looks great in my opinion. Good luck.

White or Black ... both have their "ups" and "down" , but look really good when they are clean.

Absolutely. If you can't decide, flip a coin.

well im gonna go with awhite but dont know which, im not worried about the car not looking clean cause i have enough exterior mods waiting to go on the car that imo will set it off really nicely. (advan rg's, spoon lip, oem honda yellow fog lights, thin side moldings and alot more)

White is white. I think it's pointless to paint a taffeta white car champ white.

It's ludicrous.

Go with something different, like burning red pearl, or some cool oem car color. Like the brown/orange of the 06 Renault Clio's.

i would love to do a burnt copper orangey kinda color with a orange metallic fleck in it with a red clear coat but that would mean i have to tear apart my entire car and paint everything lol and that requires more money than i have unfortunately. thats why i was looking to paint it white again.
