Remember that once you repaint you drop the value of the car and a paint job done right without a major color change is 3000.00 dollars. I have a 91 Nissan 300 ZX TT that is all original. The paint is still in great shape but I have thought about a repaint. It will cost me 3000 for the paintjob and 2000 in lost resale value.

Royal blue pearl...It's the new civic color.Laguna is a tad too light for my taste.

Second the royal navy pearl... Looks like a gorgeous color to me, not available in USDM for the S2000.

Very, very nice! This is the first green I've seen that looks right on an S.

If I was going to do a color change, I've always thought I'd do it Samurai Gold or something very similar. That, with the all red interior, Mugen hardtop and flat black Spoon SW388's would be my ideal setup.
