Its the best the car has looked since it was painted Phantom Gray by Honda! That being said when it was painted yellow the first time it was a good looking car then as well. I was talking oem for oem which is what most people it seems like reccomend. Painting a Honda a BMW color is unique and the money it would cost to paint it would be justified as you cant get a honda in a BMW color stock… Back when I had my 540, like 6 people on here were telling me to paint the car Alpine white… While Alpine white is a nice color, if I wanted it, I would have just waited and bought an Alpine white 540 instead of spending $10k on a different color car and THEN another $4k just to change the paint to an oem color… Makes no sense whatsoever imo. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/painted-99-si/262214)._
