Well, a paint job that I've always thought was sweet was chameleon paint. Ya gotta love how the color changes in different light. Now I know that's ALOT of cash, but that would look sweet.

Go check out Mitsubishis. They have a color for their eclipse that I think looks really nice. It's a little bluer than the NC blue, and it has a pearl. There's also a nice Marilyn Monroe blue from VW. I think you'd like one of those.

I'm not too keen on baby blue. I'd go for something like a metallic lime green; not too bright though. I think that would totally stand out.

that baby blue is joe's car... its coo.. has pearls and everything...another coo blue i've seen is Jason's(forgot his sn) but he sold his car and it was the 2000 Si Blue.. looked nice.. i've seen both cars up close and they are both nice colors, but u should have a kit before u paint ur car any of those colors... unless u wanna have a sleeper look then paint ur car the Si blue and just slam it w/ some 2000 Si rims.... mmmmm... too bad i already painted my car yellow or else i would do what i just suggested

if you want a really tight lighter blue color, check out the s2000's. I forget what the color is called, but its badass. If I was goin with a darker blue, I'd probably go with a color similar to that on the WRX. The color on the one pictured above is pretty damn cool too.

I checked it out at honda.com, its called Suzuka Blue Metallic. The picture shown on the honda website does it no justice whatsoever, you cant even tell its blue on there.
