I saw an element driving down the road the other day........the panels were still gray. But the color of the rest of the car was almost a championship white color, but a little creamier. The color looked like it'd be some kind of cream color, almost an off white.

any idea's?

 

i have no idea. prolly custom

 

no, it was a factory color.

 

Without pics it'll be hard to determine how off-white or cream or pearl the color was.

i dunno, it might not have been. But an 80 year old dude was driving it. Didnt really look like the type to mod an element.

 

why not just go to the honda website and do the "build your car" option.. and see what colors it comes in

 

i did, and the color wasnt there.

awesome dude, found the color!!!!!!

Shoreline Mist Metallic

edit** i'm thinking it might have been taffeta white, but there showing it to be a little darker on that site. i've never seen taffeta white look that dark.

 

i checked back to 04 and I see no white. sounds like it must be custom

 

looking at some pics, it def wasnt taffeta white.

you guys think you could find some pics of that shoreline color on an element for me?

 

ok that was the closest thing to you description but the name threw me off a little.

 

It's not shoreline, we got one in at the dealership yesterday. Ill try and get the paint code for you.

 

could you try and get some pics too man? i'd appreciate it.
