    Need to decide which color to paint

    Car is currently lachsillber metallic. Looking to do a full exterior paint, but can't decide whether to stay lachsillber, or go with something else. Will have full m-tech 1 kit and BBS RS's. Here are some pics of its predecessor. Any photochops with recommended colors would be appreciated:

    Stick with Lachs. Done right it will look amazing in different lighting.

              pretty pleeease? And maybe change the wheels to some BBS RS 001's? This way I can print out some pics of what the car will eventually look like for the E30 picnic. All m-tech parts have been acquired, now it's just a matter of paint and installation.

                  hahaha...duct tape color...it does kinda look like duct tape.

                  Man I can't decide. It's a pain to do the engine bay and door jams...I want to keep it an original M-tech 1 color this time anyway...
