Default Painting the EG, but what color?

Well, I'm getting a deal on a paint job from randy (sebastian on here) so I was wondering what color to paint it? I'm trading the LS Mesh's that are on here for some 99-00 Si's and I was thinking that I wanted to paint it EBP (99-00 Si blue) but I was wondering if you guys had any other suggestions. The interior is solid grey with grey GSR leather seats if that helps with the color choice. I'm open to suggestions so feel free.

Also, I was wondering if I should paint the moldings, or leave them the OEM black color? I am leaving the front lip, side skirts, and rear bumper lip black, but what about the side moldings?

And one more thing. How about the OEM civic spoiler w/l.e.d brake light? Yes or no?

Yes paint the moldings, and i think the car would look pretty good yellow or that si blue, but i think the yellow would look nice...as long as it has metal flake in it and everything...good luck..post pics when ur done.

Ya, I'm thinkin the Si blue would be kinda pimp. Pretty much have an EG Si lol, 99-00 Si blue, 99-00 Si wheels, CF hood, CF mirrors, DOHC VTEC stickers on the side just like the 99-00 Si's, and top it off with a nice clean ITR valve cover for teh b16..

Ya, I'm almost pretty set on this setup, but if someone has a better idea than me, I'd do it.. As for the price, I'd rather not say, its a deal, put it that way

i like the EBP, but would also like to see a magneta gray *gunmetal* that would go good with your interior scheme and the CF hood. would also look good with the black lips and some black rims.

Hmm, that wouldn't be bad. I was told last night by someone to paint it Midori Green, that would be just pure sex!
