Are you repainting your Type R? what color is it now? and why are you doing such a thing?!

They're all beautiful colors, unless your car is smashed or got vandalized, you really shouldn't repaint it.

From PY to NHB, kiss the resale value goodbye. But it is your car and do as you please.

Are you going to pull the engine and paint the bay? How about all of the other little areas that will still be yellow? If your changing the color of the car, it's harder to do right than you think.

keep it PY, just do a touch-up and save some cash. BUT, if you go with black, I would also make the rims black. makes the car look faster and more stealth. just my .02

Yeah, I hope he realizes that its not just the outside of the car that needs to get painted. That is going to cost some $$, that is if he going with a good painter/shop with good paint.
I'm witih everyone else, keep the stock color. It's cheaper the repainting the whole entire car a different color and you can use the extra money on mods. Just my 2cents

A totally black car looks bad ***... but i personally like the bronze or royal bronze... whichever is that dark bronze color.

.....don't listen to these guys - if I had the misfortune to end up with a PY, I'd have no qualms about repainting it inside and out FBP!

As a matter of fact, if I come upon any itr shells that need a rebuild, well you know exactly what I'll do - especially if it's PY!
