#66173 In Matt...

Black, Red or White
Anything else will look fine for the first few months, after that it will look a bit shit to be honest. Not so many Jap cars have the matt look. Take a look at the german VAG who are pretty good at choosing matt. Might help you choose a little better, all depends on your taste and what your goals are? :)

sorry but my opinion.


Honda Civic = a rare car :?

I like it but the paint looks faded in the day shots, more like grey primer than matte black. But I understand it is a work in progress.

reply to the colors that look good in matte, don't forget olive drab green 8)
