So, it's that wonderful time of the year. And my baby could use some work.
I've got myself some options:
The last jackass I bought it off of decided he would just paint over rust, so now I've got a growing problem. I could fix the rust (new quarters and fenders) and paint it. I'm thinking either Supersonic blue pearl or camelia red pearl (I want a stock honda color. I just bought 16" polished rota slips, and she'll get lowered come spring.
Or... I sell my ej1 and buy a clover green pearl dc2...
Opinions??

 

dc2 IMO as long as no rust is in her but hey its ur chioce if you like a eg or dc???

 

well i love my eg, and they probably have equal rust. so it is a tough decision. personally, the guy wants way too much for the dc for its condition and cant be talked down.

 

Buy the dc, and turn the eg into a toy. and fix the rust as you can afford to do it.

 

haha, well I am an 18 year old girl. in college and work at mcdonalds. so i'm kinda limited to one car at a time.

 

it's now a definite no on the dc. the guy failed to mention that it's misfiring, has a knock, and failed inspection.

 

Not really. my friend built a 490hp z6 on Mcdonalds checks in highschool.
This was all him, his parents never gave him 1 penny.

You can do anything you want, you just have to be smart with the money.

 

Supersize that bitch!

 

Money isn't the issue right now.
I'm pretty limited with my car abilities, lol.
and right now I'm looking more for looks than performance, vtec still does its job

 

mcdonald's jokes=not humerus >
i hate my job

 

What about longbeach blue pearl, still a oem Honda(nsx) color.

 

Meh. It's still a job.

 

^very similar to supersonic blue pearl

 

YOUR A GIRL!!!!?? WITH A EG EX COUPE!!?? AND DRIVES STANDARD!!?? AND IS IN HONDATECH!!!!! AND WANTS TO MOD IT!!!!!!!!!!!! plz marry me lol

 

Haha sorry, but I'm taken Btw, I get that reaction a lot.
I have 2 brothers and I'm a daddy's girl so I know cars.

 

 

Any way, back to my car problem.
I'm not getting the dc, so color suggestions?

 

I Don't get the explosion... Lol

 

It means I exploded of denial and went to cry in the corner back seat of my ek hatch lol...but yea with your eg coupe but what's ur fav color?

 

I live many states away, so that should ease your denial lol.
my favorite color is purple, but I am not painting my car Plum crazy purple or something obnoxious like that.
I want to be able to sell it when the time comes

 

Paint it DAP

 

Paint it elictric blue with purple pearl....and ehhh denial is not so easy for me lol

 

I once owned a Saturn painted this color:



Definitely the only shade of purple I would ever paint my car. When not in direct sunlight it seems like a dark blue.

 

A lot of cars originally painted DAP had lots of fading and peeling problems
Who knows if it was the factory paint or what but I've never seen a car painted DAP in good condition

 

I was originally going to do nighthawk black pearl with some purple flake, but black paint shows chips so easily
