Default Color Suggestions.....?

I am badly in need of some body work and a paint job. I know what to do for the body, I'm just not sure what color to paint my car. I want a IMPORT color, not somthing off a Rustang or Craparo.

My exterior mods(just so you know) will be:
Carbon fiber hood, mirrors, and trunk lid( I know I'll get flamed for it:fawk
LS wheels (black/polished lip)

I was thinking either:
(1) Flaminco Black pearl with xtra pearl(I have FBP now!)
(2) Nissan Gold Rush
(3) Honda Silverstone Metallic
(4) BMW Steel Gray with Copper Pearl(Some one here has this :thumbup: )
(5) Honda Silver/Blue found on S2000's(don't know the name??)

Which one...or your suggestion???

My car: 1995 Civic EX coupe

Thanks alot!
Spike

Paulll--- I'm going to order on soon. I'm going spoilerless, unless I break down and buy a M3 spoiler lip.
Si blue is too common...I want something not as common!

(1) Flaminco Black pearl with xtra pearl

Cashis-- Was it on a 96+ Hatchback or Si coupe? Coupe= BMW Gray color Hatch= Was that weird green/pearl combo.

CiviChik97-- I washed my car yesterday, and the pearl was really standing out. I'm thinking what you said is the way to go. Plus, I ouldn't have to paint inside the doors,under the hood, or trunk!
