Default what color should I re-paint my CRX?

My CRX is painted championship white w/ blue pearl coat right now, my car was lightly hit in the driverside door and I have to get the dent fixed and the bodykit sanded down and the whole door repainted, the shop doing the work offered me a good deal $1500 to repaint the whole car.
Sanded down, dings pulled, and little imperfections fixed, plus I dont have to worry about the paint not matching.
input is helpful.

Honda colour: B-92P Nighthawk Black Pearl. Its a colour used on the UK Civic Type R.

My 1990 CRX SiR (EF8) was black. A black CRX always looks yummy!

umm I dont quite understand what u mean by milky, but my car is already champ white with a blue pearl coat and I like it, and I get compliments all the time,but I appreciate the advice.
I am just getting a great deal on a whole new paint job, rather than just repainting the door where I was hit and it not matching very well.
$810 just for the door
$1500 for the whole car.

No **** Sherlock Holmes. Some of us gave our opinions too. It is his car, he should fix it up how he wants.
