As my car needs a complete respray, i'm looking at changing the colour to another Honda colour, still silver but a tad darker, i've narrowed it down to 2 choices at the mo

Lightning Metallic Silver - NH-617M

Or

Silverstone Metallic.. NH-630M

The car is currently Sebring Silver Metallic NH-552M

pretty much torn between the 2, really need to see both colours in the flesh 1st though

What do you guys think?

I really like the sebring. Here's mine a couple of years ago...

Depends a lot on the wheels and lights I guess. I'm due a respray over the next couple of months. I think I'll keep it the same. There's something that really bugs me about different coloured paint on different bits of the car. Sorry I'm probably not helping. Go for something that matches or strongly contrasts your wheels.

Wheels can be any colour as they are painted, they are currently Rover gunmetal silver

Still not fixed the rust though so it won't be painted for a while :oops:

I hate silver. I hate it hate it hate. I hate spraying it and every car i repair is silver.

BUT

The worst Honda silver is Alabaster silver aka Alabastad silver. DOnt have it. It doesnt blend and even Honda have labelled 3 codes for it because it doesnt blend.
Best Honda colour iv done was the Silverstone metallic. Paints real nice.

I'd pick the Civic silver, nearly bought an EK4 that colour, then decided on a Lude 8-)
