Default Ahhhh, what to do, what to do?? Frost white or Champ White? help!

guys, dont get this the wrong way, dont want to make this a pick a color for me, but i want to know im making the right choice.

i dont want to paint the car another color because then i would want to paint the engine bay also and thats a mission and i dont want to leave it white and the car be a diff color, that looks gay to me, so my options are either same stock color frost white or CW. unless you guys got any other "nice" whites in mind.. let me know ..

btw im getting the dents and dings removed with a paintjob soon, so thats why im asking for help. this is what the caaaaa looks like now.

I'm pondering champ white, for the same reasons as you. Although I could paint the bay during the swap, it's just too much work. I'm leaning towards champ white, saw it on a few accords and it looks very nice.

Championship white is more of an off-white, it has a tan hue to it (kindof).

Taffeta is very bright white, and Frost is almost the same, perhaps not as bright.

The s2000 white looks really good IMO, looks almost like champ white but a little different. That gets my vote.

champ all the way.....there is a huge difference.

you got the R rims, go with the R paint. you never see a frost white R or a taffeta white R.

Champion Champion Champion
