The one guy that did it won't ever answer this post, because we killed him.

Just forget the kit and paint it.

You asking a completely subjective question - there is no best color. There is only what appeals to you.

Personally I like Midnight Blue, but whatever you think is the best for the car is your decision. Blue is a good way to go though.

I'm partial to the stock blue, more than dark blue.

Look at Marco's blue DSM from Magnus motorsports, explains it.

Agree, hides the paint fade really good.

Here's my old all stock white gs.


But,you first mentioned blue amd it comes down what you like.
Some prefer red,silver,gray,maroon(at times could look purple,Lol)or the black.

Yea I should have worded this a little better. I'm looking for shades of blue that are popular and are liked by more than a few I guess.

Midnight blue, +1. Bomber body kit, -5. But it is up to you and your personal preference.

Midnight blue is an awesome color for a gs. Painting your car is a personal decision that you must think long and hard about. Unless you have loads of money and can afford to change the paint whenever you want. But what i would suggest is going to Google images and searching for 95 eclipse gs and look at all different colors on the car. Personally I love the steel gray on it! although mine is red.. lol

Kona blue pearl. It was an available color for the Eclipse only for 95 non-turbo models. I believe it was available for the Talon non turbo through the end of its run.
