What color should I paint my crx?
I just bought this red 88 dx crx and it has rust so im about to get it painted but then I thought I should paint it like that 05 honda civic gold color. I seen this crx with it looks sick. But if I do I dont know if I should paint the black bars on the sides and bottom or just leave them black? So what color Red or gold/bronze? If anyone has pics of the 05 civic gold please post it so they know what color I mean or a pic of a crx with it even better.

Re: (red_crx)
I would say leave it red unless you have the money for a complete color change.
When I had my acura repainted I added a orange pearl to the clearcoat. Turned out pretty good. Red but still different than stock.

pepto bismal pink
I saw a late gen accord with that color and 18" thick crome rims, altezza's, angle eyes, and 2 enourmous mufflers. The back bumper was a dirty black, though, from all the oil it was burning. I vomited all over the floor or my car. Took an hour to clean up. True story
Anyways, paint it black... it's hides imperfections. To go white or yellow or anything bright you need to go over the thing with a fine toothed comb or else you'll see everything. At least I would, but I guess I'm ****.
Stock black or red
Although championship white is pretty hot.

actually its the other way around....black magnifies, white hides imperfections.
