Paint questions. Si blue? or IS300 gunmetal?

I think both color are pretty nice. But since i'm gettin my car all JDM style now, i want my car to stand out at least.

I know 2000 Civic Si blue would hella stand out. But what yall think about Lexus IS300 gunmetal paint color ?

which color would most likely match the word.."jdm"?

it clearly states that since the car is jdm style (ie. no flashy kit, rims, spoiler)...he wants at least the color to be unique

Definitely IS300 Gunmetal. SI blue is WAY PLAYED OUT (well in my area at least). I've actually considererd the Gunmetal for a future paintjob [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

hey, i was actually thinking about a dark dark grey paint job for my civic. it's got enough scratches and i wouldn't mind painting that damn hood. i think the is300 grey would look awesome. i'm going to look into that for myself.

This picture alone should say "if you want to stand out, you know what color to get."

And yes, Jason is still selling his car but unless that car is destroyed or repainted, it's always gonna be Electron Blue Pearl.

Get gunmetal. That would look sick on a Civic.

Oh yeah, and color is never based on a region. But if you wanna base it on a JDM Civic, then choose one from a JDM Civic. Choose carefully - colors come and go every year. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
