Nice !! Thought it looks like the F30's mineral grey. Saw one on the road today with gunmetal rims. So handsome...

Hello Guys

Been a while on this thread. Finally e30 almost ready. Details on the restoration will be posted up separately... hehehe anyways can someone shed some light what is the colour code of this car?

Im pretty sure its not Delpin Grey, looks like a tone darker

Bro, i think you're seeking a very dark grey that looks sophisticated ie: slightly different tone/hue under diff lighting and angles.
Stirling Grey is a beautiful colour but might not be dark enough...based on your pic above.
Perhaps you can consider a VW grey.
Its a very dark, sophisticated metallic grey (LC8Z MoccaBrown Effect+) with a bit of blue pearl inside.
My sprayer is doing this colour on a Passat CC, and its being wetsanded tomorow. On Saturday, if you drop by his place, you can see the real thing. Since its easy to choose the wrong colour, i suggest you look at a real life example first as Internet pics can be highly deceiving to our eyes. The sprayer's place is in PJ next to Bandar Utama. You can PM me for his exact location.

Engine bay and conversion complete. Looking neat with wire tuck. Am seriously thinking of removing the windscreen washer to give it a much neater look. Going in for spray soon. Colour decided : delphin grey
