96 civic coupe need's paint
 
So i need help on deciding what color to paint my car i have a 96 civic coupe with SiR bumper's i posted a thread a while back looking for a bright shade of white but there are to many 96-98 civic that have SiR bumpers that are painted white so i need help picking a color that would look good on my car maybe sombody could help me out and photoshop a few colors on my car, i was thinking these 3 colors would look alright with a white engine bay since i dont plan on pulling out the motor but if you guys have any ideas just let me know thanks in advance


- laguna seca blue
- super sonic blue pearl
- milano red


Here are a few picture's of the car

Why does it need paint?

I'd rock any of those 3 colors though although I'm slightly partial to Red for some reason...

go with the laguna blue if you want people to know it's you from a mile away. if you want to be more subtle go with the supersonic blue pearl

Milano red looks really good on those model civics. You havent seen a million driving around your local town? If you think you might want red that is the color for you

You're going to hate yourself for not doing it right. A color change is a big process on a car. Why spend all that money having the car painted only to have it not match under the hood. That's as bad as not jambing it out. I took the time to do the bay on my last car and was very glad I did. Just my .02

Id keep it white if it were my choice but if any other color i would go with the laguna seca
it will make the siR bumper stand out alot more rather then a darker color

heres a picture of my old civic i painted laguna seca i love the color but some times it looked to baby blue and not so teal in certain lighting !
