    Looking for paint colour ideas

    My paint now is terrible, rust everywhere, scratches and dents, discolouration, etc. Basically it's not going to get too much worse. I've resprayed the hood and LF fender with a colour matched spray can and they look shitty, too. I'm thinking about either doing the smart but cheap thing and getting myself a spray gun and some real paint and spraying the thing myself or the stupid shitty thing and getting some spray bombs and going at it.

    This is the car:







    I have new doors, etc. to replace the rusty ones, just need to paint them. My dilema is what colour to go with. I'm not adverse to something super gay like purple or shitty and dirty like olive drab/army green matte, or even something actually good like lazerblau or just respray in the proper sterling silver. I have a vert that's going to be getting a matte purple spray job, slammed, just a stupid 'hipster' looking e30 as most will call it, so I kind of want something different with this. I'm trying to get the little details buttoned up and get it presentable, drive and enjoy it for a while then maybe try to sell it off.

    So, what say ye, r3v?

        I'm liking the idea of Lazerblau, royalblau or atlantisblau more and more. I just think that blue e30's look good. Green, too because you don't see too many of them.

                  I personally plan on either restoring the cirrusblau or delphin metallic. Kinda leaning heavily to delphin, but part of me is saying keep the car all original.

                    That's a great color. I really enjoy Marrakesh Brown also.
