People with BOM?

I'm still on the fence about a color.I ahve knocked it down to BOM and VBP. I'm going more towards the BOM side. Do any of you guys wish you have gotten something eles? Do you think you can leave with this color for 10+ years or till the wheels fall off? Any info would be great.

Same here. I've seen only two others here, but it's a large area. I've seen many red, black, blue, silver... Come to think of it, I've never seen a TW here, not even on a lot. Anyway, the first one I saw on a lot was a BOM and I was hooked...

As much as I like VBP...I still like BOM better. That color looks amazing in the sun! BOM is also unique to the Sport model. Id choose BOM.

I was very close to choosing BOM...but ended up choosing TW. It should be here in the next month!

The VBP and the BOM are the 2 colors I was going back and forth with. I've decided since I've only seen 1 BOM fit in my area that I will be getting the BOM fit.

I've seen black, blue, and silver all over my area and one lady with a stunning TW and only 1 red one. I've not seen TWB or BBP or the Mist either. BUT I'm all for the BOM fit plus it's the Sport M/T I want so it's an exclusive color for the Sport Fit

I have the BOM and i absolutely love the color. Rarely do you ever see another BOM on the road, and makes you really stand out.

lol, not seeing VBP...thats weird. I think thats like the 3rd most common color i see around here. Come to think of it you would think TW would be a common color but i havent seen many x.x

Im going to say any Honda will out last the Honda paint if you take care of your car. Honda paint sucks, and it fades if you dont garage your car all the time. Especially on black and red cars though.

Amen with that brother, Without the tint i was very skeptical about picking up my BOM, but with the 5% tint in the sun it is soooo beautiful

I love my BOM. As stated above not many out on the roads...especially the manual BOM, which from what I have heard is few and far between!!

Took BOM because orange cars stand out on the road, and its a sport only colour! also love the metallic colors more then the pearls because the pearls get swirl marks way easier IMO.

Uh, what? They are both two-stage paints, base over clear...
