Im faced with this problem as well I just bought a 1996 prelude and it needs a paint job but do not wanna paint it red (its orginal color) even though it would be cheaper. Any suggestions? I would like a copper color but not sure yet

i personally love white. I just got my prelude too and needs some body work due to hail damage. Im going to repaint it white still but 96 eagle talon white. My friend has a type r intergra and was pointing out how my talon white was brighter and cleaner. Im gonna paint to match the other car. Post some pics of what you decide to do id like to see the end result.

i just bought my 1995 prelude se green well the paint is chipping on the fenders
rest is fine i see some rust, typical im not a big fan of green
so im, gonna go for flam black pearl the same color i had on my 00 civic si
this will look good with gold rims and chrome lip but anyone got a paint quote
of any roundabouts of how much it would cost to repaint the whole car
i dont care about the door jam green and black should blend in ok since im not going for any bright colors

i think a red like some of the new audis have would be cool if you got gunmetal gray rims but i think like a lambo white with black rims would be boss too
