So they paint guys just picked up my car tonight. I have about 1 week before they are all done with body work & bay work so I'm going to have to pick a color.


It's basically going to look like Eric's EF with minor differences.

Since about 2004 I have always wanted to go with Galapagos Metallic Green (element), but am not sure if I should go blue like Laguna Metallic Blue (s2000)

Both colors are not too dark or light. I'm stuck on these two color choices.
Thoughts?

 

I like the green.

 

green here

 

Green goes with most wheels colors.
That ej8 looks hawt!

 

Green

 

green, but I would looked into 'long beach blue pearl' before taking the final desision

Thanks, I've only found 1 EG with that "longbeach blue" but the picture qaulity was horrible and poor lighting.

It's hard to find good pictures of painted cars unless they are on the car that came with them from the factory. lol

 

holy poop that green is nice..

Wish i seen it before i repainted my car CGP...

 

That green kills on the EP, but I'm doubting how good it'll look on an EF.

I also vote Long Beach Blue Pearl

 

Ohhh man. It's gonna look clean if you do an OE, model specific color. I'd do either factory white or factory... eh, yeah, white. That's it.

White will help hide the ripples and waves in the body kit too.

 

yeah i love white too but so hard to keep clean since it will be tracked mainly and see some shows. Plus i've had like 6 white cars already and my currently daily driven 05 accord is white...


If I didn't have my WW kit on there I would totally rock a flat or pastel color, as a tribuite to the paint codes of that era. But maybe on my next build.

 

I voted the green. I think it will look better a couple of years down the road. These bright blues always seem to end up looking dated... Think of when everyone and their brother was painting their cars EBP.

Check out BMW's color pallette too. They have some really unique (and still classy) looking colors.

 

GREEN

 

Blue without a doubt

 

Green

 

green would look alot better than blue imo, but its your car, ps taht ef shoe is sexy

 

Blue. You should've made this a poll to have easier data.

 

TAHITIAN GREEN

 

I say green.

 

Hmm. Either I somehow missed it, or a mod already fixed it for you. Either way, its there now

 

GMG is played on EF's already do metalic blue

 

yeah that's what Clipesd said to.
Apperently in SoCal, it's very common to see civic (particularly ef) with GMG....


damn the EPB era... haha someone had to mention it.
Love the color but hated what people did with it, over used and over done.


I was looking at other OE colors too but wanted to try and stay within the honda family.

 

Go with green. Stand out with it.

 

Blue.

 

Green!
