That pearly white like on the Ford Kuga is lovely. I know Honda do it anyway for the S on the later models 08 -09
Trust me Gary, its a looker and it IS the most desireable colour
Look forward to whatever you decide on colour though

There was a lovely black with a purple flip Honda did for just one MY; burgundy black and the S looks fantastic in that.
I had forgotten about that. Roadkill had one but it was a very difficult colour to photograph. There was also the Midnight Blue that was a JDM colour and I found This one in a Nissan purple.
Deep Purple wrote a song about it.

It was a real mother of pearl job with a mauvey flip.
It looked superb and I don't usually like white cars. Only German classics* and JDM Pandas are normally acceptable.
*with one classic German Auto-Union, it transpired they must've not liked white & scraped it all off again. Their excuse was to save weight...

i'd get a few quotes as some of the colours will be a 3 stage pearl which will up the cost.
have you thought about having the car repaired in standard colour shouldn't be anything silly cost wise then get it wrapped that way the paint will be mint underneath and you can go really crazy with the colour etc of the wrap.
i can do you a quote for the paint and recommend a local company to wrap it too if you like

Grigio Silverstone is a gorgeous colour, the metallic has a nice depth to it and seems to suit the S' shape well.
Funny thing is i was planning on painting my old faithful Zetec'd XR2 this colour after speaking to a painter who sprayed his Moggy with the very same shade, lol.
I know it's not quite an S, but it shows how good a colour it is making any car look fresh & highlight it's lines. (ignore the photo quality, was taken with my old 3gs a couple years back!)
