APPEARANCE: The third-generation Integra is a well-rounded, wedge-shaped car that is made distinctive by its projector-beam headlights and a low, unadorned rectangular grille. The Type R looks just like any other Integra coupe except... The high wing-type spoiler at the rear is the least subtle indication. The Type R has its own front bumper fascia, with a low, integral chin spoiler. Almost discreet "Type R" logo decals are strategically placed on the sides and on the rear panel. The Type R is available in any color you want, as long as it's white with white alloy wheels. thats from this web site.... (http://www.theautochannel.com/vehicl...ss091997.html) but i am sure you can get in other colours

In 1997, the limited-edition Acura Integra Type R debuted. Available only as a coupe and in a single color (Championship White), the Type R focused purely on performance and featured a high-revving 195-hp version of the 1.8-liter engine. Lighter parts and body panels lowered the Type R's weight by nearly 100 pounds. It came with a tuned suspension system, better brakes, a limited-slip differential and a specially designed close-ratio 5-speed manual transmission. In order to further reduce the vehicle's weight, Acura even made the air-conditioning system optional.Acura produced the Type R in 1998 and again in 2000. The final time around, the Type R wasn't nearly as exclusive and raw. Weight reduction was limited to 33 pounds and this time, Acura provided two colors, yellow and black.

They Type-Rs were made in Nighthawk Black, Phoenix Yellow, Championship White, Vouge Silver, Marlboro Red (don't remember the exact name for the original red), and Midnight Blue (its a metallic blue paint with a hint of purple) These were the colors thru ALL the years of the Type-R.As for 1997 (its first year in the US) it was introduced in only Championship White. To mark Honda's victory in F1. It's the color that was painted on thier race cars.
