Lucan 196 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 Okay so the time to have my E30 resprayed is quickly approaching... Obviously my 1st choice in paint colour is Black haha but what other colours/combinations (2tone etc) would you guys think would be a nice "alternative" I like darker colours BTW...

ewie 0 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 Anything but Cameleon..... Lime Spider Green maybe?? (kidding) The shape world really lend itself to a dark two-tone scheme.. maybe black top down to the trimline and then dark gunmetal or something down low.. combo that with some polished mags (dark centres) and it could look pretty mean IMO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucan 196 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 Yeah i was originally planning on satin black with matt black grill and surrounds But a glossy black would be fine, better finish that way. And yeah ive got Black rims with a polished lip so very little metal showing around car, just window surrounds, badge and rim lip... (I got the problem with my back wheels fixed as well if anyone remembers, still got to flare the guards a bit though) I'll have a look at that 2tone idea aswell though Anybody anygood at photoshop haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkwolf 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2009 That cherry black is sweet. Which ever way you go, keep it shiny. Otherwise it just looks like you couldn't afford to get it done properly. Read - Matte paint looks like it should be on your house. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
