Paint

If you go with purple, it has to be darker than what youu posted to not look like the kind of Maaco jobs I see on Neons and Cavaliers all the time. And definitely watch how much flake/pearl you decide to use, if any.

I would go with charcoal.

If you want to not worry about dirt at all, go with pewter. haha

yeah charcoal is nice and actually gunmetal is too, its pretty easy maintenance and i dont think i've seen a 6th gen in gunmetal.

What's your budget? Are you going to do a full respray? And are you looking at 2-stage or 3-stage paints?

The aqua blue you posted is nice, but there are alot of Accords that are similar in colour.

IMO, I would go with a colour from a completely different vehicle as well, rather than just some random colour.

There is the Nissan Maxima colour group, the Toyota Camry colour group or the Ford/Dodge colour groups.

deep blue and that gold look good.

but i dont know they all look a bit much to me.... i would stay with a simple color something not so loud.... like a nice elegant grey, or i realli like that forrest green from the new cr-v

Toyotas paints colors are pretty nice. Most of them a heavy on metalics. I say a nice silver, gold or green. You have tan interior so it might look odd with some colors

^That's true, gotta consider the interior. Tan and purple would look bad.

Full Respray except for the bay and door jams which I would do myself

Yea I was hoping that the aqua blue was just a bit more different than the accords. Yea I might reconsider the colors Ive picked

DO you think the blue is different from the blue's seen on CGs. And which gold are you talking about. Im really looking for a unique paint job. Something thatll pop. Simple but unique, for example Ive seen a sexy cream color hatch.

spend the extra and get the jams done. you can leave the bay but at least do the jams.
