I'm getting close to getting my new paint job. All I have to do is chose a color. I wanted to get a current BMW color, but what to chose? I've found a nice list of colors: http://www.cardata.com/spoilers/Car_...aint_codes.htm I like the grey metallic so far. The Interior of my ti is Black, Light Grey, and I have Dark Purple Leather seats w/ matching door panels (not the whole panel). I think that would match pretty nice. I don't want to do black again due to the fact that a lot of peeps have black, but also, it's hard to keep clean out here in Arizona. Any thoughts? | | | 05-09-2006, 07:33 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: No Where Posts: 297 | I think I'm just going to go with the Graphite Metallic. Haven't seen a ti yet with it. | | | 05-09-2006, 08:56 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Norfolk, Virginia Posts: 289 | Sounds like a top hat idea! __________________ _____________________________________________ Cold air, Dual Exhaust, Ellipsoid headlights, CCFL Angel Eyes, custom ICE, M3 wheels, Cobra Radar Detector, CF eyebrows, ACS CF gauge bezel, clear corners, Euro tail lights.

I'm contemplating on changing the interior, but haven't because I think it is unique. I'll post some pics later today after work. | | | 05-10-2006, 07:03 PM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Berkeley, CA Posts: 411 | You could always have them special mix a few colors.

Does anyone here think that I could get away with dying my leather seats, eventhough they are that dark purple color? Just a thought. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
