Will this paint make my e30 look dated

[trashcop 80s 80s]

My uncle is going to paint my car for free. All I have to do is buy the paint and supplies and then fix the dents with body filler. His wife just had a baby so I have a few weeks to decide what color to do. I want to paint it red I just haven't decided what kind of red. Do you think this color would look bad? It is House of Kolor Kandy Red Brandywine.
Could you guys throw me some options on a red color...

i know the girl is hot as shit

The girl makes it kinda hard to focus on the car.

Not my style of color but it's nice.

how about a red like this? Its not a stock colour is it?

[318driver]

i really like that color alot..what other body parts do you have. It would look especially sick with an mtech2. But yea i like that color alot.

That red on the GTS kit looks nice. I wonder what color it is? I don't have any type of exterior mods yet because I'm deciding on what style to go with.

i'd stick with either of the 2 OEM reds...my 2 cents.

Mmmmmmmm.... Mercedes....

Id go with the e36 burgundy. BMW reds will always look bland after a few years. either orange or just dull...

i think flatter colors like in the 2nd picture look better on e30s.

[Ryan Stewart]

You die! Metallik colors RULE on e30s! :twisted:

[trashcop 80s 80s]

Is this a factory M3 color?

[bimmerphile]

imola red would look good, I think.


But then again, no matter what color tasteless mods will destroy the whole picture.

That red e30 is a ringer for Randy Sparre's car, short the M-techII door panels and Civic skirts.

Yeah, same front, rear, spoiler, and wheels. It also reminds me of Jeremy Cunninghams car. His is a redish orange with GTS kit and white wheels.

Anyone know what color that car is?

[e30Matt]

Looks like Imola Red.

Go on maxbimmer. He has a banner so most likely he is on there. Just ask who in Canada owns a red e30 with a reiger GTS kit. One of the 368 who responds has to be that guy.
