E30 colors
« on: November 21, 2007, 09:12:17 PM »
Dear all,
Currently i have E30 M40 4 doors with Diamantschwarz color, i've planning to change the color with Red. I won't choose the color from other OEM Brand, and will find the color from  E30 colors stock.
The choices are Cinnabar Red, Misano Red, Brilliant Red and Henna Red.
Which one do you think the best Red color for E30 body ? Or there are any other
colors than mentioned above.
Thank you.

i have a 2doors brilliantrot, and red is the worst when fading, but the inside of the trunk is nice.

With the right equipment you can do a lot to rescue old paint.

I'm currently prepping my brillantrot sedan for a repaint.  I'm planning on doing it up brillantrot again.  I actually prefer zinnoberrot, but I don't wanna jamb it and mask off the engine compartment, so brillantrot it stays.  It's a good color imo.

I've always loved the original 318's (and M3s) in hennarot and have wondered if I'd like it as much on a late model 318is. This is definately a color you have to feel strongly about to do though. If you are looking for a true red brilliantrot is the color.

Calypso Red looks great imo.

Brillant red is really common.

I like all E30 colours but my favorite are Lachs Sliver, Laser blue, Diamond black and Malachite green
