What COLOR?

[MaxBell]

So, I'm going to repaint my E30. It's white right now. I sorta wanna keep it white, but I want a REALLY crisp clean white.

I was also considering a red, but I have no idea what. Maybe Brillantrot?

Anyone know of any good colors and pictures?

I feel like this color says...hmmm..."I'm 55 years old?"



And the Alpina Weis III is a E39 color right? Pretty clean I'd say. Nothing like Glacier white or Morning Frost white though.

Anyone know any good blues?

Alpine White is awesome.

Nissan Cloud White QM1 is also a really bright, crisp, cool, white. Mazda Techno White Pearl is another nice bright one, but obviously, with pearl.

Despite this, I think a creamy colour could be cool. I don't know what kind of look you're going for though. I just think it would suit the E30, since its lines have more in common with older BMWs than newer ones.

Wayyy to light to be BRG.

Wayyy to light to be BRG.

Theres no single tone for British Racing Green.
Started on the earliest British Racers who paid homage to Ireland for hosting the GP because speed limits had been introduced in Britain, it was almost black.

Its basically been through every shade of green, right up to the Aston Martin DBS Currently racing at Le'man.

I watch.. ALOT.. of Topgear.

BRG would be really nice to see, also whoever said cream is onto something. that could be really nice too. As for reds there is the BMW Melbourne red metallic (a76 i believe?) that's pretty nice. alot of pearl but they are blue and lilac so when it flops over it doesn't go TOO silvery which is a peeve of mine.


any way you go a fresh painted e30 is always going to look good!
