Hey Former, post up that pic you took of your car and mine side by side. That pic shows the difference quite well.

Here's a comparison until Former posts a better picture. Sebring on the far left, Silverstone beside it and Silverstone on the far right.

Mine is def. the colour of the far left one.

Does this mean my car would have been repainted? or what?

This would explain why my paint looks such high quality compared to regular honda paint. not very much orange peel at all.

Way better than my previous two Hondas. (2000 Civic, and the RSX)

If it was re-painted, now the question is ...... WHY? And why they didn't paint it the proper stock colour?
We'll have to compare colours when we meet up.

Yeah, I'm very curious to see this. Does the colour under the hood, inside the trunk etc. match?

You guys got me all worried, so I just spent like 5 minutes looking in the engine bay, door jambs, all that... and its all the same.

Heres my paint code from the door jamb: NH-630M
I'm sitting here looking at my bottle of "Silverstone" touch up paint and the paint code is: CH NH630M
I got this code off the door jamb. So your door jamb says "Silverstone" but your car colour is Sebring.
Danny, what's the paint code for your Sebring?

koala, if you like we could meet up earlier than later? I could swing by your work place tomorrow sometime if this thing has you stressed out and you can see the 2 colors side by side. Don't put your address here. PM me if you would like us to do this.

From the "library":

NH-552M - Sebring Silver metallic ('02)

NH-630M - silverstone metallic

You guys should definitely do a side-by-side comparison.

Congratulations Koala! I would say Enjoy, .... but that's redundant, as I'm sure you have already,..... and will regardless!
I believe I spotted you yesterday, on 32 Ave N.E. at about 2:30 p.m. Very nice clean car. (They're so noticable!) Hope to meet you on Sunday.
