View Full Version : thinking of changing paint colour MAD LIL E21 08-20-2006, 08:31 AM open to suggestions:) what do you guys think? holdfastgreg 08-20-2006, 09:54 AM For some reason I like colors that match up to blacked out trim/wheels. I was thinking about redoing my bmw in the Dodge panther pink with blacked out trim/wheels/interior. It looks amazing on some cars but I dont think itll pull off on a bmw. Try a red or charcoal.

( i want black with red pearl but it just looks brown) befor you chose a colour, have a look at the thread in the e30 pages about what colour cars get the most tickets, it has some things i never thought much about when chosing cars, (The last three were black), I know what the cops are like in aussie so it might have some good ideas. Greg323i 08-21-2006, 02:28 AM If I ever change the colour of my car, I'll go either Reseda green or Brazil brown. Both are unusual and really nice. paintshop 08-21-2006, 02:32 AM its alot of work, trust me Rickysbmw320i 08-21-2006, 02:47 AM just dont take this color! i got dibs! isnt it pretty?:moon http://www.mustangphotos.com/photopost/data/515/medium/IMG_1004.JPG MAD LIL E21 08-21-2006, 04:33 AM i am thinking about raven blue. it's a holden GM colour a really dark blue which almost looks black,when full sun hits it, blue mettalic and perls come up. been spraying a car that colour recently and have fallen in love with it. was also thinking of maybie a slight blue pearl over the alpine(if i re-paint that colour) pimpin.dre 08-21-2006, 10:26 AM i was thinking about doing mine a metallic burgundy kinda colour. blitzed310 08-21-2006, 11:28 AM I wont suggest any colors for you since I would not let anyone pic the color of my car for me. Just go with what you like. Keep in mind a color change has much more hours of work to get all the old color off and the new color on. This usualy envolves the removal of all seals and replacement of new ones. I seem to favor the Metallics though. BARRY E36 M325 08-21-2006, 03:50 PM I say keep it white since it takes much less effort to repaint rather than having the whole car be a different color. Just put some E36 LTW M checkers on the front and back corners and you'll be satisfied.:cool |
