Civic EG

i want to paint the hatch sometime but i want to have a different color. would that be more of a pain and money to do the door jams and all the little stuff to cover the old color? or should i just stick with the original color.

its alot more money if u pick a different color (if u do it right). what color do u have now?

im rockin the original white but i was thinkin a good gold would freshen her up.

ahahah i had white and i went to 350z burnt orange. to tell you the truth i miss the white.. but i like the orange too.. guess ill have to own another whitey.. but white is cheap to paint just to let u know but a gold paint job will cost u doe for sure

How about Porsche Macadamia metalic



combined with Carbon hood- trunk - lipkit

its always going to cost more to repaint a car a different color other than the color it is. Having it repainted white will still look good but if you wanna do something different do it! it's just going to cost more.

I found a good shop by my place..it's funny too because the only way I noticed their shop was because there was a horizon grey coupe outside that had just been repainted..omg clean..but anyway, he is going to charge me $1600 to repaint mine but that's with fixing my quarter panel and pulling out the small dents here and there.

im sure mine would be much more hah. my quarters arent bad- some bubbling but id fell those in or re do and dents and i got in a minor accident the day after christmas which leads me to needing a new rad support and fender. ugh. ill have to keep saving!

It just depends on how much money you want to spend. White is a clean look though.

this might get some more responses if you put it in the extior section.. has nothing to do with hatches

got mine resprayed in the original colour whole car minus the roof, all dings and dents sorted, was worth it cost me 1k but if i was to do a full coulour change it would be more like 3-4k. whites a good colour if you like keeping it clean!! as someone else said its cheap to fix aswell.

thanks everyone.
still getting used to using forums so your right this would be better in exterior lol. next time.
