Default Thinking about new paint job

something different from the teal green this car came with...
I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of phoenix yellow with CF hood. Is that too um...spoon/type R. I don't know what colors look good on this car.

Any input would be great

<--feels kinda dumb asking this question

if i had a paint shop, i would paint my car in the spoon colors!! blue front with a yellow rear!!! reallistically, i like the type r yellow a lot, i am sure i have seen it on a crx before. throw on a C/F hood, and you are off to a nice start. i would make sure i have a 90-91 si front bumper with the side holes under the turn signals cut out, as well as the Si front lip. you might even consider leaving the trim black, along with the mirrors, door handles, and front bottom part of the bumper. the black and yellow contrast looks very good.

I really hate that teal. I dont blame you for wanting to change it. If I could afford it, I'd paint my car some kind of black pearl. Hatches look sweet all black. Crx's look nice with that orangy-amber color and other more exotic colors (like yellow).
