Nearly there.

Looking good Nitin. Is that a Honda yellow? What cars is it used on?

nitin_s1 - out of interest, is there a particular image or set of images or particular model car that sparked the idea for the 'Phoenix Yellow' '?

A quick google...

Hmm, thinking it'll be better on a 5th Gen..... Now who would do such a thing?

Thanks for the postive comments.

I had to respray my whole car as it’s body work was really poor which is why I got the car for cheap anyways. The main plan was to get the car re-sprayed in OEM black colour to get it looking mint and as close to OEM as possible as it’s a rare car. Then whilst I was deciding I was looking at some JDM videos and saw the yellow with white wheels, then next day I saw a Phoenix yellow JDM DC2 drive past me with white OEM wheels and instantly fell in love with that colour. At that time I was following HondaProJason on social media and he had a FK8 TypeR which is sprayed in this same colour and it was a huge thing as it was the only one TypeR there with the colour. So I decided that colour. It’s OEM JDM Colour so the car will still have OEMness but at the same time it’ll be unique = instant win.

Just for reference, the colour is called Phoenix yellow in Japan but other countries that had this colour they called it Sunlight yellow.

Ratty, I was going to debadge the whole bonnet/boot, but decided to leave the badges as I’ve some gold rare badges from factory which I will put on the car once it’s all doneZ
