    it is recommended to stick with stock color - doing a proper, full-new-color-respray demand$ time to do correctly.

    (imagine the car, years from now - how would you feel each time hood or trunk was opened to expose different color.. and how a future buyer might feel..)

    re: red - sporty. "look at me". whatever - red is a rockin' color

    re: white - clean. innocent. reflects uv and 'optimally' keeps car cooler - an aspect worth addressing.

    Whatever you do, think first. There are so many pics of e30s of various colors - all over hell.. search for 'em, save 'em, stare at them and change how they would look [in your head] with various changes.. sift through old Members Rides threads and seek inspiration.

    .. do it clean. do it simple. and avoid ebay-esk cosmetic parts.

      Why not respray it the original color?... If you ask me, no e30 color is ugly.

              thanks for the pics!!! yup, if i do a respray, it'll be a full on job including the engine bay and all exposed parts.

              i'm still torn between the 2 colors
              Thot of doing a respray cos the condition of my paints not too great, might as well change the color

                White is easy, and imperfections in the paint won't be as obvious.

                I vote Weiss.

                          Go with white.....it's easier to keep it fanatically clean.
