Im having a bit of difficulty deciding what colour to get the e30 painted when the paintshop finally get round to it!!Soon hopefully.ItԚ's got 17Ԛâ€a chrome bk299 wheels, twin dtm exhaust and an mtec2 kit going on. At the moment it is white and I would like to paint it diamond black but I have grown to like the white.What do you lot think?Black would look amazing 8) but I want a second opinion.So white or black or have you any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

Depends what kind of colours your thinking of. Flat, metallic, pearl, etc.

Flat - Alpine White II or Jet Black (SpEvo colour)
Metallic - Macao Blue

Other problem you'll have if the car is originally white then the under bonnet, etc will obviously be different to the exterior which never looks nice.
