Laguna Blue Pearl vs Apex Blue Pearl
 
Hey Guys! My EG will be painted tomorrow. I'd like to have a blue color and black hood, roof, and tail gate. But...
Im thinking between Laguna Blue Pearl (http://www.s2ki.com/s2000/uploads/ga...1133785794.jpg) and Apex Blue Pearl (http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4040/...efc7590afc.jpg)
I wanted to get your opinion here in RS. Which one will suit my Honda EG?

Thanks sooo muchhhho! :))

Generally I like the Laguna blue better, but I think Apex would suit the EG nicely.
To each his own, it's your car and your decision in the end :thumbsup:

Im also planning to get a white rims. Would that blend to apex blue pretty well?

Energy 06-24-2012 11:09 PM

Apex Blue is such a nice color. That would be my pick.

Wishful_Thinker 06-24-2012 11:17 PM

Isn't it too Girl-ish looking for a guy? I mean the Apex Blue.

Energy 06-24-2012 11:21 PM

S2000 CR is not a girly car. Its a very unique shade of blue.

Apex Blue Pearl looks absolutely beautiful on the CR but, in my opinion, it wouldn't suit the EG very well. I had an EG and have a S2000 currently and I've always thought the EG looked best with a darker shade (of any color really). On the other hand, like others have said, it is your car and it is ultimately up to what you like best.

P.S. I hope you are flexible with your color choice, I'm sure you are aware that there are many many pictures out there of EGs with custom paint; explore your options, find some inspiration, and you might find another color you like better instead of OEM colors. Hope the paint job turns out well!

Darker Shade is also what Im thinking. Plus, Im also getting my hood, roof and tail gate painted black. I guess that would match a darker shade of blue?

Thank you! :)

busdriverman 06-26-2012 09:55 PM

on an eg, my vote goes to apex laguna blue.

Recon604 06-26-2012 10:03 PM

apex gets my vote

westopher 07-01-2012 12:16 PM

Apex if its going to be aggressively styled. Laguna for oem+ looks.

Wishful_Thinker 07-04-2012 05:05 PM

I got the laguna blue. It looks good. I'll post a photo when I get it back. Thanks for your opinions guys. :))

Energy 07-04-2012 05:10 PM
