innocent blue mica varies on the angle of sunlight but when you see it live is the best colour on an FD, mine is
IBM 2000 Type R its the best colour ever, grey is very dark for an FD
Spirit R also came in a very limited number IBM colour.
The last pic is the actual colour the fist 2 are darker though.

i recommend something bright, dark color dont come out too good when painters cant countrol their guns. n when they make lil mistake spraying clear coat, itll look really bad. no matter how good painter is, they're still human n they make mistake.

bright color like yello n white, u can barely find mistakes.
white rx7 looks pretty k0o. like type rz. just add lil pearl in it looks even better.

i love IBM but its true that its becoming almost common place here (well not where i live seeing as i have one of 2 FD's in the whole province ) but in north america.
The spirit R colour is much more rare... does anyone have a picture of either the spirit R or IBM on a done up FD at all (aftermarket bumper, CF hood, etc)?
my paint is starting to crap out on me with chips and scratches and fading so when i repaint its going to be one of these two colours.

IBM would stand out more when driving, or anywhere else for that matter. it would definatly get more attention.

They both look sweet. I like the blue mica, but have you looked into a Gunmetal paintjob? I have seen it on an rx-7 and an mr2 and I fell in love. Id put up pics, but I dont have any sorry.

I painted my Turbo II the 91 rx7 color, Brave Blue. In my opinion Blue Mica is too bright. I like a deeper darker blue. I also added some sutle blue flakes in the paint. I came out very nice. I get offers on my car all the time.

it's 25g. only available on certain mazdas. any good body shop should have a book with oem colors, and they'll have it. and no, the color is way different than the 350z gray
