Eucalyptus Green Pearl:

Ficus Green Pearl:

^ you gotta pick a cololr that would go with his interior. I pic ficus

ficus.. but please turn all of your wheels the same way

I know I'm being an ass by not selecting one of your options, but...keep it in the 4th gen family: Azure Blue Green Pearl!

I like the ficus, that would look awesome. And thats not his car up there, he borrowed the picture.

If thats the case then he should really go Pacific Blue Pearl!

oh i see it now 'all the pictures'.. i thought the pics of the 5th gen's were borrowed.

my car has some c2 knockoffs in the 17" variety.

Couldnt afford the real thing and i think they are the best looking wheel. Had to fake it.

and yes, the color choices are because im not going to convert the interior over to all black, i happen to like the tan interior. I dont like red, blue is nice, but my evo is blue and a ***** to keep clean lol

Oh, is that the name of the stock 4th gen color? I knew it was something like that.

Of the ones you picked I think the ficus is the only one that will look good on a 4th.

Personally I like blues...

Stick to the present champagne color...It stands out beautifully in my opinion.

Spot · 09-07-2007, 10:41 PM

I like the champagne as well, you don't see very many 4th gens in that color and I think it goes beautifully with the interior.

Tola · 09-07-2007, 10:59 PM

If those are you only options, I'd go with Ficus. But as far as "green" goes, the stock Azure Blue-Green is the sickest, of any green I've seen from any manufacturer.

I know you said you don't like red, but red + tan interior = sex! Blue + tan does not mix well. I also think the champagne, (along with white) are the nastiest (ugliest) colors on a 4g.

...^Shirwood green pearl....the color of my car is WAY better than the blue-green

p.s. keep it the same color it is...throw a lip on there and some wheels, and call it a day

i think the jdm nsx lime green metallic would look sick on a 4th gen with the jdm black 1 piece headlights. i also like the ficcus grean pearl the best out of your choices

prelude2005 · 09-12-2007, 06:38 PM

ficus green pearl
