I don't want to seem like mr negative here but I'm pretty sure Diamantschwarz is quite a desirable colour for E30's…So if you re-paint in the original colour it will

- be a heck of a lot cheaper

- a heck of a lot easier

- have much better resale value.

Seeing as you need to ask a forum what colour to paint YOUR car I think pink would be best.

Diamanteschwarz for sure. Unless youre planning on keeping the car forever and stripping it right down and doing it properly.

It wont be original though and it will kill it in my opinion. The tech 1's were only offered in limited colours it seems and seeing one another colour would look odd to me. My initial thought when seeing it would be that its not a genuine tech 1 and has just had the kit and badges stuck on.

Really depends if you want to keep the car looking quite original or not.
