What shade of red is the new colour? The car looks pure class mate.

I'm gonna be doin' rear arches and scuttle panel on mine in the near future so gonna get a full respray but was unsure what shade of red to do it in - after seeing your car I know what I want the colour to be.

Looking good mate

[E30BeemerLad]

car looked tip top in those pics beforehand

I dread to think what mine looks like under the kit, which has been on the car for 15 years now!

Top class motor mate

[JonnyBravo]

lol I had the same problem man, was dreading taking the kit off had no idea what I would find under there lol but I was lucky enough and only had a few wee repair jobs around the rear bumper

Well she got her face paint tonight, getting rubbed down and buffed tomorrow nite

[jmc330i]

That is one seriously red E30

I bet you cant wait to get the kit back on. I will look amazing

[Demlotcrew]

Very cool! is that zin red?

A

[JonnyBravo]

nah man its Brilliant Red

hopefully build her back up on Thursday, we are a wee bit behind schudule at the mo but we'll get there

[Mahmood]

Mate

Looking at the first set of pics I couldn't see the need for the respray.

Anyway, credit to you for doing the job properly. Your car is gonna look amazing.

I have a 325iSport in Brilliant Red. The paint will get tired and lose it's gloss as it is not garaged. My plan then is to do exactly as you have done. Back to basics, kit off and a full-on makeover in the right colour.

Put some pics up when it's finished.

[JonnyBravo]

She was not in bad shape man but there were a few things that I wasnÔš't happy with like dents and stuff on the doors, the lacquer was coming off the wing mirrors and around the windows because the last time she got a re-spray the windows where just taped up and not removed and the bonnet and boot lid the list goes on lol

The only way to do it is to strip it right down, all the kit off and windows out

i'll post pic's up when she's all finsihed, cant wait now

[smit325is]
