yeah, it will be red :D 2 much of a pain to completely change the color, besides, this car will be fore sale and it's not worth to do all this extra work...

you keep matching VINs by using the original trunk.

Some people (Like me) do. I actually find it a very important characteristic for a car such as an e30.

I actually kind of agree on this one. Of course if your car is wrecked go to town.. but if you own a nice condition 325is with nice factory paint.. matching body part and engine numbers will make a difference in a few years.. but maybe i'm just the biggest boss you seen thus far (sic)
