I like the 2 tone paint i think it will look really cool
as far as interior keep it stock if you start messin around with colours and **** without having it done right its gonna just look ricey, if you have that 2 tone paint and keep everything clean it will definatly be a sick car, good luck on the whole thing cant wait to see pics of it done

anyone have a second to take a look, im thinking of going with the black and blue STI since the blue is 67$ and the black 45$ a pint and i only need 1 of each so its cheap, but what do you guys think?

Just by the pics I think the civic blue looks way better. Its got a little more metallic look to it that will really stand out but not look over done. and I do like the STI black. I'm not sure what the diffrences are but it looks a little cleaner. Have you thought going a little more exotic and goin with maybe some porsche colors? Maybe a basalt black and a cobalt blue? Just do an image search for cobalt blue porsche or basalt black porsche. it's definatly a diffrent color that no one else is gonna have.
