Paint my car....

[DarkWing6]

The project of actually having the paintwork done on my car is a ways away, but I am starting to think about doing more than just respraying white. I would like to keep the base color white, but I want to add something to it to make it a little different. At this point I really have no ideas of what that would be.

Post away with your ideas on what I should do. Race themes, pin-stripe, etc... The car will have a full ACS kit on it at the time of paint.


P.S. - This pic is not my car, but similar. I don't have a good shot of my car on my work computer.

ACS Badge PAINTED on!

No don't do that. I think you should do an OEM AlpineWhite3 with gold flake.

Maybe a black roof. It would look lower.

Shave door locks. :) AC Schnitzer on the rear quarters painted about 1"high in silver incorporated into a pinstripe?

Or maybe on the trunklid where the ACS badge usually goes? That might be a little too bland though... I like the two on the rear quarters...

How about "Yes, I Have e30!"

If you're going to repaint it, dump a lot of pearl into it.

I always liked metallic whites...

I'd like to keep the factory white because I don't think I will be doing door jams and all that.

I like the idea of actually having the ACS stuff painted on. Think bigger than just color. Graphics, painted like a classic race car, or something like that. Make it stand out like Curt's car....kinda.


BTW - Curt, if I never told you, I love the got e30? setup. Best play off of the got milk? ever!

Derek, I'll put something together in MS paint tonight. I'm staying home for a weekend for once.

Side work FTW!!! ;)

How about like a 6-8" tall ACS on the quarters tied into the stripe?

Thanks! I dont think I have even seen or talked to you at all this year, lol

I fiddled around in PS alittle because I was bored. Smoked headlights, some delphin stripes and delphin roof with an ACS badge, painted rockers to simulate body kit and shaved lock and ghey sidemarker. I wish your baller wheels were pictured.. I'd like to color those too.
