im not big into the crazy showcar stuff, but i always liked kawasaki green and white. its outrages, but clean. baby blue aint too bad either though. i cant beleive you are talking about painting your si already, man. you must have some serious $$$$

That would be hot. Go with the baby blue and a carbon fiber hood.

Dude dont get baby blue on your new car, thats a girls color, get PY or something, or CY.

thanks for the responses....... but i got a estimate and it would be about 3,000 for the paint job....

$3000 for a quality paint job is a good price!...did that include the door sills and engine bay?

[xlr8]

3000 is pretty good, i spent like 5000 on paint and bodywork on my stealth

Are they going to sand it down and everything? What kind of warranty? That's pretty cheap. Sounds fishy. :)

I think that you'd get tired of driving a baby blue car every day. Plus imagine the BS some people will give you for the color. Unless you can look at the color for years, I wouldn't recommend it.

Hey CleanBlack, tell me how you like the coil-overs whenever you get them installed. I'm looking into getting some. What's the range? 0-2"?

It's 0"-4" on most GC applications. However many people can't turn the wheels all the way at 4", so it's usually less. I'm going for 2" at first, and once I get new shocks, probably 3". :D

Sweet. Post pics when you get 'em installed.

i have ground control and they are great........ it ride a little rough, but so do all coil overs.. i have it dropped 3.5 and i dont rub or anything and it looks sweet......... and yes the 3,000 for the paint job includes all door jams and under the hood..... but i have had alot of negative things about baby blue.... so i just might worry about different mods now...

[SiCivic2k2]

Are you having any camber or shock problems yet with it being dropped that low? What size rims do you have? That's good that's it's not rubbing.

I wouldn't repaint the car, it's looks tight as hell just the way it is!!
