maybe its custom? just throw some paint around and do a little mixing till you find the right one. I'm planning on doing the jade green mattalic on my ej.

engine bay/valvecover/rims probly gonna be pink haha no joke. there use to be a pink car group that consisted of three hondas and one 240 around where i live lol. but ya. i would like to see just what some colors look like on the car. cause to me one color may look good on something but horrible on something else. so show me what you think is the best color for an ej/eg and that would be awesome.

i actually was thinking a nice dark deep blue, with a nice deep purple engine bay, vc, and rims. but that olive green does look nice. keep em coming, iv had plenty of ideas going through my mind so its all just helping pinpoint what i really like.

if i could see some engine bay/body with different colors to see how they contrast.

it sucks cause i actually need to see things to know if i like it haha. i cant just say o that would look good.

For a deeper purple engine bay I would look to "ultra violet metalic" but thats just me.
