I went with Subaru's World Rally Blue. The car is galaxy gray, but if it doesnt look right, i have a can of black rustoleum high heat, it goes over anything :D. I decided on Subaru World Rally Blue Metallic. I will do a How-To if anyone is interested. It really isnt that hard to do.

Looks great! And yes, lose the big "H" ;) That will look cool. But there are probably pegs behind it....and holes in the trunk

Oh and one more thing before I forget......smoke the tail lights ;)

:cheers:

It's a little too much contrast for me (maybe red would be better?), but the trunk looks great sans the Civic badge!

Looks like you've been hogging up the whole driveway with the new Honda!! People are parking on the front lawn! :lol: J/k!!

The blue looks great. While you had the tires off, doing all that painting why didn't you paint the brake hubs? Like black or something to clean up all the rust? Just spray it with rust remover first. Then tape off the brake surface and spray the hub, looks really clean and finished then.

The debadge looks good, I would find a chrome tip for the exhaust pipe though, and a bumber sticker that says "My other car is a Lexus." :lol:

UPDATE!!! The civic badge is gone. The giant "H" is staying for the time being...cause there are holes behind it :(
