    lachs is such a nice shade of silver when cared for. keep it lachs unless you are going to do it right.

      You have a beautiful original color, keep it! If there was a decent Lachssilber E30 around me I would pick it up, but there isn't, ever.

          And stay with the silver, when it is fresh there is no other color IMO that looks better.

            therefore, their value is much greater.

                +1 For the keeping it Lachsilber. Alpine Whites are dime a dozen (I own one)

                    Rarer than you'd think. I've only seen a number of members here with lachs. Like what's been said above, when the paint is clean, it's a sexy, sexy color for an e30.

                    Search "Post your lachssilber"
                    It'll give you some good inspiration and hopefully put you in favor of keeping lachs. ;)
