I guess you could scuff it up and try a colored clear coat to make it look more blue. IDK

I think it looks great! The bluish, purple fade, however you call it, seems really unique as a color. If you check out my 1993 Civic LX thread, you'll see that my blue paint when I brought it in for a paint job didn't turn out the way I wanted. I've grown into it and now think that the color is unique and matches well! The paint was supposed to be Harvard Pearl Blue..but I guess I forgot to mention "Harvard Pearl".
