If you're going to do a full repaint(take out engine and spray) I would suggest the platinum white pearl from the NSX or Imola(but its been done). I had mine championship white but since the engine bay is not painted, it was totally off, so I had it reshot to moonrock. what color are you planning to go with?

House of Color. pick a base color you like and then see what they have to offer. go to a location that has samples so you can see how light affects the samples.

there is a ton of very cool custom paints out there. If you want to be unique then mix up a custom paint and make sure you get a ton of it so you can repaint anything that gets damaged.

dont go with any factory paint IMHO

I was thinking the lime green from the motorsport elise on GT4 (not sure if it's a real factory color or not) would look cool with a black hood, black Hardtop, and black wing. I'll consider doing that color if/when I start racing and my car needs a re-spray.

Alternatively, Imola Orange, if we're doing Honda factory colors. However it's a bit too orange for me, so I'd try "Copperhead Pearl" from PPG. They painted a truck that color on the show "Trucks!" and it was gorgeous.

Then I'd put a big, white longhorn emblem on the side.

The BMW Z4 comes in a couple of colours that would look great on the S2000. Granite is a black with metalflake in it. They also have a really, really dark blue that would be gorgeous. I'm also partial to red. On the other hand, that picture posted of the S2000 with the metallic lime green paint is so sharp. Never thought that I'd like that, but there you go.
