    opinion on paint color

    i recently bought a 90 accord.I got it for $400 but it needed some work.Engine runs smooth.It needed a bit of body work which i have done myself already (which isnt the best). Honestly The car was in horrible condition and i dont plan on keeping it as a keeper. Therefore I will be taking to Maaco for paint soon just to make it look better.

    The color of the car is the reddish color or maroon. I want o paint it a color which is not too glossy so that it will not show minor imperfections here and there.I was thinking either white, or champagne or something with the least gloss. Let me know what you guys can think of.If you can post pics, that would be great.Thanks!

    I know this photo is not clear but if a photochop is possible i would appreciate it.

      Looks like a good deal for $400. Anyways I like the GOld paint job SDaccord (sp) had a while ago, blue looks cool too.

      I myself love my white cb7 and pearl white like the NSX would be hot

      Great achievements result from great effort

              With good prep work a maaco paint job can look just as good as anyother paint job.

              Refer to this.Maaco and other places thread

                      lol i guess so. It doesnt matter to me if it doesnt match really. Yeah my plans are to have it look kind of like what you have.
