ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Ultimate CB7 Paint Code Guide

    OK, first off let's start with this:

    All paint codes for Honda's are located in the door jam. The highlighted part displays the color code. These codes can contain both letters, dashes, and numbers. This is a photo of a real label from an actual Honda Vehicle.


    Here is a list of every paint color name, code, and what years they came on (this is based on my research and may or may not be 100% accurate, although it is to my knowledge):

    HONDA ACCORD (1990-1993)

    DESCRIPTION CODE YEARS
    Arcadia Green Pearl Clearcoat BG-30P 92-93
    Alt. Blue Green Pearl Clearcoat B-67P 93
    Bordeaux Red Pearl Clearcoat R-78P 91-97
    Bright Blue Green Metallic Clearcoat BG-23M 91-93
    Cappucino Brown Metallic Clearcoat YR-501 90-91
    Cashmere Silver Metallic Clearcoat YR-505M 93-95
    Champion White Clearcoat NHO 92-00
    Charcoal Granite Metallic Clearcoat NH-531M 89-91
    Cobalt Blue Pearl Clearcoat B-54P 90-93
    Concord Blue Metallic Clearcoat B-58M 91-92
    Frost White NH-538 90-97
    Geneva Green Pearl Clearcoat G-62P 91-93
    Granada Black Metallic Clearcoat NH-503P 88-96
    Laurel Blue Metallic Clearcoat B-49M 89-91
    Mulberry Red Pearl Clearcoat R-74M 90-91
    Navajo Red Metallic Clearcoat R-70M 89-90
    Opal Green Metallic Clearcoat G-73M 92-93
    Pewter Gray Metallic Clearcoat NH-537M 90-92
    Phantom Gray Pearl Clearcoat NH-561P 92-95
    Phoenix Red R-51 88-91
    Rosewood Brown Metallic Clearcoat YR-503M 92-93
    Sebring Silver Metallic Clearcoat NH-552M 92-95
    Solaris Silver Metallic Clearcoat NH-536M 91
    Seattle Silver Metalic Clearcoat YR-94M 90-93
    Laguna Gold Metallic Clearcoat YR-87M 87-90
    Green Metallic Clearcoat BG-26M 90-91
    Celestial Blue Pearl Clearcoat B-53P 91-93
    Buckingham Blue Pearl Clearcoat B-59P 91

    Heres a little pic i whipped up showing the breakdown visually:


    also, here are the scans from a PPG paint chip book for 1990-1993 Honda's. Honda codes to the left of the chip, PPG codes underneath.

                      what's your paint code? i have found thats it VERY hard to get a 100% accurate chart and will most likely take a few monthes to work out any minor inconsistencies. Let me know what your paint code is so i can verify, thanks

                          Green Metallic Clearcoat BG-26M

                          offered on our cb7's in 90-91

                          your paint matches your year

                          *edit* this color by Honda is called Green Met., but PPG offers it under the name Hampshire Green. I'm not sure who's correct on this, but i will find out for sure

                          *second edit* also, there were two colors, BG-26M and BG-26M-3. I think this has something to do with new formula for the paint meaning honda changed the properties of the color mid-year enough to warrant a new designation (i.e. added a different tint, flake, or pearl additive). I wil lresearch this further
