I can't decide what color to paint my car. I want to try thinking from a different angle...

What do you think would be the worst color to paint a 7th gen civic? And Why?

Unevolved

**** brown. For obvious reasons.

You realize you're not going to get anything but people's least favorite colors with this thread, right?

Oh, and how's the car coming? Any progress?

Didn't you already have a thread on what colour to paint your car?? I recall a vote of like 10 or 11 different colours, or was that someone else?

Eyger

You're right. But that's ok, I want to choose a color by elimination I guess... I'm not sure, I can't decide so I thought I would collect info of another nature to help my decision.

It's coming along pretty well. I'm being so ridiculously/purposely **** with the 'flatness' of the car, because I want to be 110% sure that when it comes out of the paint booth, I can look down the side and NOT see any wrinkles/wave. Other then that It's coming along well, I've been flattening out the waves and stuff. I just got a quart of primer, and a new sanding block, so I'm going to bring it in to get primer, so I'll post pics when I do that of course.


**** brown sounds like a bad idea, but what do you think about 'root beer' brown?

Eyger

No no, you're right, that was me. That thread certainly helped me a good amount get an idea of what colors to look at, but I still wanted to get some more input on paint, thought I would try a process of elimination kinda thing...

Root beer brown??? If its anything like the magnesium color on 04-05 civics would be great. Those civics with that color look sweet but I don't like it on any other car for some reason.

i'd stay away from brown pink or purple... but i think purple would look really good on some low riders... not on civics

Black is the worst... Not because it looks bad but just because it shows EVERY little scratch and swirl...

I would go with Acura's Carbon Bronze Pearl... OMG I LOVE that color. Its so different.

yeah, no kidding...i just found my FIRST dent ... about the size of a dime on the top of my fender . Almost like a dent from hail. If there is a flaw it will show on a black car. But i love the color!

i would definitely agree about the pink, purple, brown, and would say baby blue, bright orange and neon green are also pretty nasty colors (on vics anyway).

Inca pearl is horrible

HonCiv02

^i like the inca pearl when it is tastefully modded. there is a member on here with it and i like his car. there was also another member who had his car in honda tuning - i am pretty sure with inca pearl and a kswap.

I think I'll stay away from anything brown.
