bronze the other colors you mentioned are too overdone, and bronze is settle enough not to stand out too much but its still noticeable different. Now if you were a real pimp you would paint it sunburst orange lol

yeah I kinda like it, should of made it a bit darker like the bronze on the rota rims, if I did paint it bronze I would go with black or white rims.

It doesn't look like you're getting too far away from the original color you hate, which is black. Except for that bright ass blue that I wouldn't recommend.

Go to car dealerships and look around. That's a good way to pick.

Well guys...today I made a purchase of a 94 si coupe shell, it has everything but engine, 1 fender, front seats and guage cluster, but has no almost no rust at all, and its already been preped for paint. so the 4 door is gonna stay black and be my winter beater, till then I will be working my hardest to get my new car looking like this.

http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...977_3_full.jpg

Its already red, and I will be sticking with red...I wasnt even expecting to make the purchase, I was infact going to pull the carpet out of it, lol then I saw the condition of the body,asked how much we wants for the whole thing and said to myself...I'd be stupid not to, long story short I paid $300 for it, needs like I said, engine, tranny, guage cluster, paint, and front seats, and a new windshield. thats it, the interior is immaculate, the only rust is the typical 1/4 panels, and its already been cut out, the car looks like it was garage kept all its life. there isnt even any dirt under where the plastics were, just fresh red honda paint.
