          Nice write up. Just purchased a flushmount and wanted to paint it the same color as my car. That's after I take off all the carbon fiber wrap that the previous owner but on..

            Keep in mind that the paint on your car has faded a good deal over the last 25 years or so... so even getting the matching color code might not result in a perfect match. If the paint is in good shape, hopefully it'll at least be close enough that it won't be noticed.

              99% of all paints/codes have many variances.

              Example most puter GMs same paint code 17 different variances of that code, and age only makes things worse.

              Now you can have a profit done this will be your best bet in matching paint.

                  Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen anything official on this site detailing exterior and interior color combinations, so I've been taking pen and pad on my junkyard runs to get a list going. Regarding paint codes, I found some cars that were NH-538-3 ('91 LX sedan, '92 DX and EX coupes were on hand with this) and one that was just NH-538 without the -3 ('92 LX sedan). Same exact paint?

                    I’m wondering if the -3 is a pearl addition. My code is NH503P-3 Granada Black but I have seen NH503P no -3 also. Maybe EX models got a pearl and lessor models didn’t? I’ll be studying this also.

                      I saw one of each trim level with the -3

                      This is everything that's sitting in one Denver yard at the moment (exterior paint code / interior color - looking around Majestic, there is a ridiculous number of interior color codes for plastics, cloth, and headliner material). I'm going back down tomorrow to pull parts, and will try to squeeze in another yard in the area just to collect color combos.

                            Interiors
                            Type A black; 91 Solaris Silver SE, 90-91 Phoenix Red DX
                            Type B gray
                            Type C blue
                            Type D burgundy/red
                            Type E ??
                            Type F brown
                            Type G tan/beige; this is the SE interior code also.

                            The code colors have specific names also I’m pretty sure. Maybe someone else can help with those I.D.s

                            Now these codes seem to be only representing the lower half of the interior.
                            For example. I have seen type D in two cars but both had different color upper plastics. One had the beige upper plastics color and the other had the gray upper plastics. The exterior colors were different also so that I’m sure plays into the interior color combinations.
                            Another thing to note is that 91 SE models have their own upper color plastics also. Maybe the Phoenix Red DX models have the same? I’m not sure I’ve only seen one of these black interior DX models. It was a coupe also and I’m still kicking myself in the ass for not taking more of the complete interior that was there including the black cloth seats!! Its gotta be the rarest US CB model of all hands down.
                            I thought at first that the 91 SE upper plastics were the same light blue/gray uppers as the blue interior cars but it’s actually darker. A real nice gray I might add also. Certainly better looking than the so called gray upper plastics that mostly come in type B gray interior cars.

                              Where did you see a gray interior in a 91 SE? Are you certain it wasn't a swapped interior? From all the literature I've ever seen the 91 SE came in two colors, Solaris Silver w/Black Leather and Brittany Blue-Green with the black dash and ivory leather.

                              The only way you could get a non-black dash in a brown / beige interior car was to have the 93 SE with the airbag dash, or have the poop brown interior in the 90-91 LX models.

                              The red / blue / gray interior cars had matching dashes. You may have seen cars with interiors in various stages of fade, but Honda didn't make any combos other than what I've listed from the factory. Who knows what was replaced over the years in various cars.

                                What I’m referring to when I say gray in a 91 SE is the upper plastics and headliner. The bottom pieces and leather are type A black.
