Suggestions please!

I have a 97' Civic coupe. It needs paint, I already sanded it and now i can't decide on a color, I like a lot of different colors on that car. So can you guys suggest some? i have blacked out lights along with blackrims btw. Thank you!

Re: Suggestions please!

My favorite color has always been navy blue or any blue close to that shade like fiji blue pearl,but that's my opinion.It's your car.Choose a color that suits you and your personality.But one more thing,I don't like black on black.Like a black car with black rims and blacked out headlights.

Re: Suggestions please!

Yes,electron blue is over used because a lot of people bought 6th gen Si's in electron blue so every time I see a 6th gen Si it's electron blue.It's a very popular re-paint color for all 6th gen Civics too.Maybe a type of red would look nice or a different shade of blue.Nothing that stands out a lot though.

Re: Suggestions please!

Kinda OT but what did you use to sand down the paint? Did you remove all the panels and sand them down?

Mind posting a pic of the car?

I'm thinking of painting my own car too but thinking of using the $50 paint job method.
