    Solid blue alpina

    I'm about to paint my e30 and have been going back and forth on a color. I have always loved the solid (single stage_ colors on older bmws. So would it look right painting a solid blue on an e30 with black trim. I'm also thinking arktis blue which is more rare, since it a little darker/grey. Thanks!

      You should do Glacier Blue. Because we need more to add to the squad.

                    I like cosmos, I think cirrus is my favorite but I want to be able to run black wheels and it's a little too light for black imo

                      Atlantik.

                      I'm all for solid colors. Now, if they only made real chrome bumpers for the E30...

                      now, sometimes I just mess with people. It's more entertaining that way. george graves

                            Errr uhmm probably shouldn't say anything... Kind of my secreat stash. But they range from 5k to 30k. Pm me if your are interested. I think i would have to sell one of my cars if i did it. And that would mean the cabrio and i can't part with it. What part of country are you in?

                              Oh I couldn't buy one currently, just wanted to know what a good price may be, I was think 5-10k for one that needs some work? If you get one please share it on R3v ;) I'm in New England
