BLUE! Make it the Si Blue though ??? thats the color I always wanted to paint my hatch if I would've ever gotten the chance. I think it would look bad @ss. Either that or the STi blue imo

^^^agree'd

If I weren't going to paint my car either olive green or midori green (can't make up my mind... probably midori) then I would definately go with SI blue. Sure, its been done, but DAMN it looks good on our hatchbacks!!

Electric blue pearl is overplayed, fiji blue off the new si's is amazing. Only seen a handful of Civics painted that color, including one sexy *** Sol that a guy is building on HT.

^Exactly why I wont do EBP...its been done way too many times. Im leaning towards blue the most, just not sure on the shade yet. Ill check those mentioned. I personally love white, midori, and EBP hatches but I want to be a little different. Im painting my old Rota Circuit 8s white soon, so Ill have a white set and a gold set. Blue will look sick with both colors haha.

I like it, but I need to see it in person. Some of the pics make it look a little dark for my liking.

Go to your Honda dealer and just stand there and enjoy the color. I also like Chevy's synergy green.

Havent been on here forever. Been messing around with the car some as of late, so I thought I would share. I finally was able to trade of my old Rota Circuit 8 wheels, I picked up a set of XXR 522's. They are 16x7.5 +25 offset. I had them coated white and just put them on. Its been raining non stop here so I don't have any good pics yet.

I did a fender roll in the back, they clear pretty good. No rubbing or anything but I plan on adjusting the ride height a bit more. So with the new wheels on, I put my Konig Candy's up for sale or trade. I ended up getting a set of Motegi Traklites with new tires that have been fully polished, def a trade up for me! They weigh only 10lbs each and go for about double per wheel compares to my Konigs. They will be on the car here soon haha. No pics of those yet though.
