When I had my 2010 Honda Fit, a neighbor a few blocks down also owned one, that was a burnt orange color. It looked almost like a copper penny.

I always thought that was a great color. But Honda didn't keep it in the line-up.

Might be strange coming from a guy that routinely chooses "Black" as his vehicle color choice. But I kind of wish all automakers would get a little more creative with their pallet offerings.

Red, White, Black, Silver....

Makes you kind of appreciate anything different.

Did a little google research.

The color I'm thinking of was called "Orange Burst Metallic" which Honda dropped in 2012. Quite a bit different than the OP's Orange.

Not by my memory or pictures.
Kind of had a burnished copper penny look. But it wasn't too light. The "shade" actually looks similar to the OP's orange however...

The big difference is the OP's orange isn't metallic.

I like the OP's color.

But just musing why Honda doesn't offer more choices.
Car companies want to appeal to the greatest majority. But that often ends up with a domination of Red, White, Black and Silver.

Form Fit

The Form Fit Hood guard would look good on there as well. I got it from my wife's '18 after she caught a rock and got a tiny ding and chip the first week she had it. She didn't think she like it when I described it to her but I ordered it anyhow. On the car she likes it alot. now that summer is here she is regretting not having the windows tinted yet(again something I suggested first week(almost 2 months ago)............

Did you have to remove the handles from the car?

If so, was it difficult?

If not, how did you paint the back side of the handles?

Also, how did you go about taping off the ground effects skirt for plasti dip application?
