Appreciate it! Wanted to do something period correct, these were the perfect fit.
I'm not sure to be honest. It's possible I suppose. I was confused by the sticker as well. Documentation (Carfax etc) indicated the car was blue, and the paint definitely shows its age in some areas. There is no evidence of repaint that I can find, everything is estoril blue, all of the jams, panels, everywhere. My thinking was that if someone went to the lengths to completely repaint to that degree there really wouldn't have been any reason to include the sticker post-color change. Only other option I guess is that it was a mistake from the factory, or that some well meaning but ill-informed enthusiast put it there. Your guess is as good as mine.

Appreciate the kind words, your E36 is incredibly clean, I am hoping to get mine to that level eventually. You're not far from Atlanta, right? I'm down in that area every few months, I'm only a few hours away.
