go with the blue, but my fav color is blue as well, so i am a little biased.


kahnvict's blue 5th gen FTW! I saw one on the road the other day and it was gorgeous. Definitely a rarity.

I've always been fond of the late 90's civic si "electron blue".  I think that is what it was called.  Awesome color.  

its electron blue pearl, and the color i am getting is close to that but a little darker.

The blue isn't bad...

I love graphite, the darker the better.. with some shiny specks in it...
Almost black, but really just a dark shade of grey... when people see it they'll double take cuz they aren't sure if it's that color or not...

"oh... oh wait, it is.. and damn it looks good"

Like the color a lot!  Looks very good.  Are you going to take pics of the transformation...like when they sandblast etc?  Keep us updated with pics.

It's amazing how popular that burnt orange is out here.  So many 60's/70's pick ups wtih that burnt orange color.  Never really noticed it until as of late.
