Here's the deal, My engine (JDM Type R) is ready to be dropped in. I Never painted the engine bay because I wanted to paint it when I did my swap so its still silver which is the original color of my car. WEll I decided, rather than painting my engine bay I was gonna paint my whole car a diffrent color. I think the yellow is played out and it seems like every car is yellow now. Should I change the color of the car or just paint the engine bay to match. My car is the same yellow found on the Integra Type R (Y-56). If I were to paint my car I would want the color to match my CF Parts. Any suggestions/pictures would help me out a ton. I have less than a week before it goes back in the shop. Here is a picture of my top color choice, but you decide! To VIEW my car as it is now CLICK THE LINK ON MY PROFILE!

MY CAR NOW:


TOP COLOR CHOICE:

 

that dark silver is a great color but is becoming as played out as the yellow. im a black w/ pearl guy myself.

 

keep your car the same colour...... and get ctr headlights, then you'll be straight!

 

A lighter silver. Light silver + CF Hood = hott

 

any shade of gunmetal is getting played out. How about Midori green(have you ever seen a midori green coupe before)? or an orange shade

 

nsx orange

 

Brown

 

balch104, real nice job on the color change haha. What program and how did you do that, it looks perfect. It's different I like it alot.

 

that color under the pic of your real car is dOPE !

I agree, it looks tight because its a color you only see on R's usually and contrasts with your cf hood nicely. Paint the engine bay.

IS that a yellow s2k in the background? What part of CT u from?

 

rainbow flakes over a metallic black base..

 

dark orange or a dark red

 

That's actually my friend in the background coming to meet me in an 2003 Yellow S2000 I am located in the Westbrook area.

 

Midori green on a coupe would be a pimp *** idea.

I myself saw a light copper on an EG and I think it was the nicest color ever. I didn't take pics becuase If I saw someone randomly take pics of my car Id flip.

I bought my GSR from a guy up there, old guy tho. Again keep as is. Spend money on the motor!

 

the copper of the dodge dakota pickup trucks on an import would look nuts, and might match up incredible with the CF

 

Hrmmmm, toughie.

 

 

have you thought about the metallic blue that the 2003 Acura TL-S come in. its a really nice blue

 

Yellow is played out, but a clean yellow honda is not.
Keep the color and enjoy the motor

 

I vote leave it alone, get new wheels instead and shave the spoiler. Just my .02.

 

orange is nice but paint the damn CF hood. I think unpainted CF hoods look like burnt rice. I like the blue M3 color the best
