This is as close as 20 minutes could get me to the Carbon Bronze color for ya. Sorry it's not a 95 but that's all I have for now.

that looks good, but that doesnt have as much gold in it as much as i thought it had. i know bronze but still. its seemed like it would have a nice shade of gold in it.


is there anything between carbon bronze and the gay gold on my car?

Have you tried going to your local paint shop and looking at there paint swatches/chips. There are thousands of colours that you can choose from for automotive paints? I'm sure you can get exactly what it is that you are looking for is you go to a paint shop. They can mix custom colours if that's what your looking for.

Is there a reason you are sticking to Honda colours?

The carbon bronze probably looks a lot better in person. The only samples I had to go buy were online pics. The web isn't really very friendly to those deep colors. If I had an untouched digital image I may have been able to get it closer.... Paint Shop is still your best bet
