      Do Calypso!!! :D


      Personally, I'd do MTechnic Violet - or whatever it's called. God, I love that color... :up:

        M Technik Violet? Thats an interesting color.

        Full respray? I would go with Calypsorot. Other than that, for inspiration, check www.e30.de reds.

          Henna. But the Henna police will be after you if you do it.

              I like calypso but it's not for me, maybe henna but I'd have to see pics, I remember it being orange-red which I don't like.

                If you don't like Henna that much, then go with your first choice - Imola.

                    So do it in Imola!!!!!

                    Does it need a respray from fading or something?? In your sig pic it looks pretty good.

                              Eric Giles just bought a 330i with the performance pkg (ZHP) in Imola. I was expecting more a red, but it is borderline maroon. Good color, just kinda dark. That's cool if you like the darker reds though.
