Default anybody else notice how honda owners choise of color is changing?

I've noticed lately how much alot of honda owners are moving away from the milano reds and electron blue pearls and type R yellow in favor of bronze/copper/metalic greys...
just wondering why and if anybody else noticed this growing change

Yep... it's just a 'trend' thing... just like how we once liked extreme bodykits, and now, we stick to lipkits, Lol

it all goes round and round in 96 I had flat black black racing's and now I see that **** as being rediculously tacky - also took the stock spoiler off my teg then because I was mad tyte street racing f00z! and in 97 they would mock me with there type r wings - now everyones doing it just to play along even the ITR guys which is lame *** **** since it's there for a reason

I wish racing hart tracers, silver zspeeds and 17in white sparco viper fangs would make a comeback

i guess changing to those colors is just a way of trying to be different....

... even tho they all sorta look the same, one way or another.

i have no clue, i've always had good taste reguardless of the trends.

i decided on dark shadow grey upon instinct, mostly because i knew it would compliment all of the black ek4 moldings so well.
