Car paint color - help me choose - Honda Prelude Forum

jsmooney · 03-26-2009, 08:26 AM

so, as I posted before, I have a 94 Frost White Si. The quarterpanels are rusty and the sunroof needs swapped out for the 5th gen assembly, other than that, its pretty good. Nothing a little cutting, welding, and bondo won't fix. I am considering 2 colors

NH-0 Championship White

Gran Prix White

Can anyone locate pictures of a 4th gen with these colors? Right now I'm leaning more towards Championship White, but Gran Prix White looks attractive too....

Any opinions/suggestions?

Thanks guys

Championship White...next question

^ werd. Championship white! Almost all white 4th gens are that color. Looks awesome!

***edit. My bad, I meant to say that most white 4th gens are Frost White. Sorry, my apologies.

Jorge.....

what is the difference between frost white and championship white? Championship white is the Type R color (I think) so that will make me go faster

but the thing about the color is, sometimes it looks off-white in certain kinda of lighting....

whats the difference between championship and gran prix?

oh, it will also have a 5 lug swap with base 5th gen wheels...

I was trying to stay away from pearls and metallics since they are a little more of a pain to spray. I like the dark gray on the S2k, but I'm not sure about that - that may be a little more work than i want to do to completely change colors, but I guess I better do it right to start with.

NH-0 looks good, just kinda bland....I'll think about it. Thanks for finding the pics. with jdm one piece retrofitted tsx projectors....that may look pretty good on a 4th gen

the casablanca white is more like an egg color... it's just very different then your normal white ... but that white prelude you posted looks soooooo money... i would rock that out in a second
