Default My pix is inside: Tell me what is the best color to paint my exterior?

I am planning to paint my car tomorrow. Anyone know what is the best color of blue similar to captiva blue looks good? I am thinking about thre RSX blue that they have for the 06 model or si blue. Anyways, here's a pix of my car and I am dropping it off for a paint job tomorrow afternoon. Anyways, advice will help. Everything is the same on the car beside it have full polished slipstream and I am hoping the blue will bring out the rims a little more bling bling, haha. Thanks

That all depends on what color you like.

You are painting it tomorrow and still haven't picked a color?

Yeah the type R one has noticable orange peel, but the color doesn't look bad at all! I would go with that, or the rsx blue most likely.

long beach blue pearl? is that a stock color or aftermarket? That is the color I am looking for... If I can't get that color, I will definitely go with rsx blue or captiva blue.. If so, which one you think looks better most commonly?

Well, I just decided to get a paint tonight, haha. I have called my friend shop and they said they are ready to take my car in for a paint, but I only can get stock paint. No aftermarket due to a hook up. yeah, let me know is the long beach blue pearl a stock paint or aftermarket? If it original I will take that for sure and my 2nd choice will be 06 rsx blue
