Default Keep original color? 1993 Integra GSR

So I’ve recently purchased a 1993 Integra GSR. It needs body work and ultimately a new paint job which I have scheduled in two weeks. I’m not sure if I should stay with the original color or if you’d recommend something else. White seems like the neutral ‘can’t go wrong color’ but I’ve seen this in turquoise and it doesn’t look half bad.

Don't know if you've already chosen your color, but if you're willing to go with something flashy, either orange or bright yellow would be really cool for this car! If conservative, just stick with the white, since it matches the wheels anyway. Who are you going to have paint the car, and how much will it cost?

Hey mang! I already purchased the color, it’ll be white but I’m getting a pearl added to it. I’ve been messing around with developing my own decals. You can find an example attached below. Going to put one of my decals on under the clear coat.

Cool idea. Decal under the front hood? Or...?

Probably the front left quarter panel, but I came up with another one that’s more sleek.

Myself and my uncle are working together on it, it’ll gonna cost me about $4500 and some change.

A genuine GS-R of these year Integras are not too common. I would have done it white to keep it original as well.
