Default Full repaint but what colour?

The S2000 is currently in the bodyshop and looks like it will be in there for a full paint, the question is do I keep the super rare Silverstone or do I go for something else whilst I have the chance. The engine will be staying in as I just don't have the time to paint another engine bay this year!

Whilst I'm not overly keen on the Silverstone colour, there are very few colours that I think look good on an almost standard S, someone help me decide!

If you are getting a full respray go for something which Honda don't offer as standard! I would go for a burgundy colour if I had the choice sitting on gunmetal grey shoes!

I have done mine in BMW Pepper white wasent sure at first but now I like it.

However I would hesitiate to reccomend any colour its a very personal thing. Maybe just trawl through some of the galleries and find something YOU like.

I chose mine as a resut of seeing another car in Ireland painted the same colour.

Not a fan of white on OEM looking cars, but they do look good with a body mods and wheels.

Laguna blue is a nice colour, but I'm also a sucker for the darker silvers

2nd the above. Laguna Blue... I've never seen one apart from in pictures so must be rare in the UK. Lovely colour.

Graham (Baldii) has a Bermuda/Laguna blue car and it is spectacular! Beautiful colour.
