what do you think about midori green?
 
hey whats up! well Ive always had a secret LOVEE for midori green

i dont know if its because it reminds me of my first car (92 mk2 gti /montana green)

but I like it... and maybe in the future If there came the time for a paint job, that would be a color I would definately consider if not keep it the same.

Just want to know for those who have painted / repainted / change the color of their cars ... how hard is it to paint the engine compartment with the engine still in it? Is it possible? how does it come out?

If i was to get a color change I wouldnt just want the outside color changed so thats why I am asking these questions.

for those of you who dont know what midori green is here are some pictures of some guys on HT


if anyone would be so kind as to photoshop this color onto my car that would be great thanks! :-D (and maybe change the rim color to white)

it's not the right shade of green. midori green is lighter. ur ps is way too dark. nice try tho.

mrDFWmechanic 02-18-2006 08:35 AM

how about milano red or that orange color they have on the new 06 rsx's

here's milano red on a hot tejas ride

aznrocka 02-18-2006 09:15 AM

ruffryde009 02-18-2006 09:18 AM

that milano red is pretty sick... but I mean..Midori green is more exotic :-p ... i remember the looks I would get because of the color lol

The girls (back when I was in high school) called the car 1 in a million, even the ones I didnt know heh

diskreet 02-18-2006 09:27 AM

That green is ONLY ok if you have a tein suspension! lol

agreed. OMG that is the hottest and cleanest EP3 i've ever seen. what kind of kit is that? :tup: :tup:
nm: i just checked closely, it's the OEM kit with the mugen grill. the mugen grill makes the kit, wow. :sweet:

edit: hey where can i get those wheels? those OEM honda wheels right, or did they just switch the centercaps?

mrDFWmechanic 02-18-2006 10:15 AM

those are the DC5 wheels, you can get them off any major jdm import site

Wow that red on the integra is nice. I would paint that color if anything ever happens to my paint.

bOoStEd042dr 02-18-2006 10:53 AM

^^^^^yeah that's really nice..

Mutha Fn FBM 85 02-18-2006 11:14 AM

dang all those hot cars!

Vantage 02-18-2006 11:17 AM

the LX came in that green? I own an 01 LX, and have never even seen or heard of 1 in that colour b4. Id love to see a pic if someone has 1

mrDFWmechanic 02-18-2006 12:06 PM

i find that hard to believe that galapagos green was on a 01 civic

04|5spdCivic 02-18-2006 01:00 PM

ugly ass green color. go with that faded rsx green!

Zeppelin8778 02-18-2006 01:34 PM

i find it funny that midori means green in japanese. the color is "green green"
:giggle:

mrDFWmechanic 02-18-2006 02:31 PM

really i didn't know that huh that is kinda funny

raquel 02-18-2006 02:40 PM

I like all those green color. Especially off the element.
Thats hawt!

tuningmycivic 02-18-2006 03:25 PM

i like the green on si and the faded metallic one on the rsx...there's a similar color on mazda 6s...a little less metallic looking, but the color is close :shrug:
