E30 Zone

hi i recently bough a bmw 325i cabbie, wanna send it off for a diff colour, curently a silver with a blue pearl, want it a dark colour, the car cream leather so will set it off real nice, was interested in motorsport blues, what are the differences in macau blue, maritaus blue ? any pics of cars with it?

thanks dilo

Do something different if your gonna spend all that money for a colour change.. no point going back to a factory colours....

macau blue.. is the purply one

make your own..

people have done blue to death .. try mix up a cool funky tint of blue...!

Not many Estoril blue E30's out there. That would be different to most on the road at the moment.

I personally don't like Estoril on E30's.

Dayatona Violet is a lovely colour!

had a e30 with that colour....

i dont advise custom colours, try match it up if you hace a scrape!

the best thing to do is find a colour you like on any model, the find out what colour it is, theh find the colour code, have any paint supplier make it up and off you go.

this site is quite good to find the colour name/code

click BMW, 3 series, year (eg -1990) then application all, colour all and start, you will get all the colour offered by BMW at that time for that car. use this if you find a colour you like on say a mercedes.
