need some advice, please...

Hey everyone,

I'm new to this forum, but have a question for all. My current side body kit has unfortunately a nice crack in it by the wheel well in a unrepairable location. So I have been told. Anyways, I am probably just going to buy a new pair. What I am concerned about is the colour matching. My car has been repainted, (small accident) and was painted with sikkens brand paint, with the Black B92P paint code to match Hondas. The new honda OEM body kits come pre-painted. Do you think the prepainted will match my car ok? Any ideas how I can tell? I have honda touch up paint and it seems to blend in very well. Does the original honda B92P when in the sun have a dark blue metallic sparkle to it? (Mine does)

Also, I tried to add a pic of my car below. I was told my side skirts are honda OEM. Do you think this is right?? (I am not the original owner)

Thanks in advance for any input!

Jer

I dont see why the paint shouldn't blend in. But you also gotta think about wear and tear on your car's paint. (might have faded from the sun and have different shadethan newly painted sideskirts). And I dont think your skirts are OEM.

they are OEM aero kit, not the basic ones. aero kit is more expensive but they look nice.

try look for aftermarket sideskirts and get a bodyshop to match your car colour, it will turn out cheaper than buying from honda.
