Don't do a color change.

Don't do a color change.

It might look good on these pics, but it's pretty bad in person, and I don't really like the bronzit. Want to try something different

Mine went from Bronzit to Sparkling Graphite to Brilliantrot

You should do Alpine White

I really like that graphite color, and I like alpine white, but most the people with e30s in my city, have or had alpine white e30s Lol

Unless you are also pulling the engine to paint the bay, don't color swap. Cars that have a non-matching engine bay are a no-no.

[MrSlacker]

All your door jams, engine bay and other misc parts of the car will be different color... will not look good. Of course if you are stripping it to bare shell and spraying EVERYTHING, its a different story.

Well im doing a swap by Upcoming summer, so I will just paint the bay then. I guess I can deal with it for a couple months

I Might want to do interlagos blue? What do you guys think?

[CW325]

I think it looks fine now.

My dad has an Interlagos blau e46 M3. Looks great on that car, idk how it would be on an e30 though.

You made this thread before and I'll say my vote again-Imola. That's what my car would get if i ever repainted it, but that's largely because it's already red.

He didn't say don't paint it. He said don't do a color change. I totally agree.
