    All,

    Rather than a blog, maybe follow the example on Prime of having a projects / builds section?

    Let me run a new thread with a poll . . .

    Ref the colour Dan, will you keep Imola or go for a subtle update with New Imola?

    Ah, colour choice - I had noticed when looking up codes that Imola Orange went through a change at some point - I will be keeping the stock colour as I`m not painting the engine bay.

    Can anyone let me know the correct colour code for the `99 IOP, plus what the correct code would have been for black wheels at that time?

    Thanks, Dan.

    Imola Orange Pearl YR 514P
    New Imola Orange Pearl YR 536P

    Not sure Honda ever offered black wheels on any NSX? Different shades of silver/greys....


    Try searching under "paint" and it should bring up a few threads with possible options and codes....

    I thought they were available in black under the Custom Order Scheme at some point - may have got that mixed up with grey though....

    The wheels on mine are black - they will be refurbed in black, figured it would be good to get a Honda code - maybe the roof black code?

    Cheers, Dan.

    PS - does anyone know how to remove privacy glass? Chaps at the garage just looked at me confused, as most people want to add it!

    Dan,

    The OEM colour for wheels was Solaris silver NH536M. The anthracite was only available JDM Custom order plan.

    Privacy glass film is removed by heating it up with a gun & peeling it off.

    “I find myself irresistibly attracted to cars that nobody else buys. The NSX is a classic of the genre because nobody buys it and yet it’s a fantastic car. It’s got a wonderful compactness and simplicity and unpretentiousness to it. Honda rudely continues to make them whether we like it or not, even though there can be no commercial logic in doing so — I thoroughly admire that.” Rowan Atkinson

    Hi, Dan.

    Good luck with the project.



    For the body colour code, you can find it (if it’s still on there) above the door striker when you open the driver side door.

    Also, our member Sudesh posted this useful info and it is on the ‘sticky’ section of the Technical Forum.

    http://www.nsxcb.co.uk/showthread.ph...odes-amp-Names


    The black coloured wheel was indeed available as part of ‘custom order plan’.
    It was introduced at ‘Step.5’ of the plan around 95/96 together with other two wheel colours such as ‘Formula Red’ and ‘Indy Yellow Pearl’.

    Regarding the black colour, it was only described as ‘Black Metallic’ and within Honda Colour code, there are at least two codes that includes this word.
    The paint shop should be able to find it for you.
    You may want to test it first to see the balance against the body colour.


    ‘Privacy Glass’???
    If you are referring to the smoked film on the glass, you can try the heater gun first followed by the glue remover but that’s well known method so probably we are talking about something different…..
