my E30 is currently the original silver silver and M-technic fiberglass bodykits.

I think is about time to makeover with new paint and repair of the bodykit.

Do you think GOLD colour looks good in E30 ? :unsure:

The original gold shades for E30s are either bronzit beige (paint code 139) was used by BMW between 1983 and 1990, or Luxor Beige (code 219) used in 1987-89.

Whatever colour you paint your ride, my advice would be to stick to a original BMW colour used for the E30.

To me a non-standard or non-period colour on an E30 will look ODD.

Of course to each his own :lol:

Yesterday i saw one E30 in gold color, no bodykit, just a plain 16' rims...dunno what brand laa...it look very very nice indeed..somehow the car was fully tinted with gold color oso....i dunno type of film he used..but it is not gold dust...sometin gold that blend very well with the car...waiting 30min to meet the driver, but nowhere to bee seen.... :beaten:

Btw...my E30 was black, if I spray it with same color (black) it will be much cheaper isn't it?

 

[KL2DC]

One vote fo A22 Sparkling Graphite Metallic....beautiful color (you have to see it up close irl), but I may be biased

 

[M.Directspares]

going for Gold!
