ebpda9 · 03-24-2003, 04:13 PM

bubu this goes in offtopic

*ChrisCantSkate* · 03-24-2003, 06:04 PM

well, call BMW, they will have it

Wren57 · 03-24-2003, 06:43 PM

That doesnt look like stock BMW paint, but I may be wrong. It looks like Nogaro Blue to me, which is found on Audis... of course I could be wrong.

ebpda9 · 03-24-2003, 06:50 PM

yeah i guess i should take my brother and look for that paint at stores

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 07:42 PM

Aight cool
Thanks
that means i'm prolly gonna go out and look for paint

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 07:43 PM

What is the best paint out there anyways?

Duckydos · 03-24-2003, 07:44 PM

I am a member on several BMW forums, so I am asking around there... It could be Leguna Seca blue, I am not sure. Once you find out the name, you can go here: http://www.my330i.com/paints.php to get the paint code. I'll let you know what I find out on the DTM forums

Duckydos · 03-24-2003, 07:56 PM

It's called Avus Blue:

Rob · 03-24-2003, 07:58 PM

damn that's a pretty ass blue

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 08:04 PM

It does not have to be a BMW paint at all. It can be from any company!

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 08:07 PM

Thanks a lot DuckyDos I'm porlly going to the shop on thursday to get the paint with the guy that is doing it for me. I have to get my suspension and my bro's spoiler on first

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 08:14 PM

One more question and I'm done

Can I get this paint at any store that sells paint

Duckydos · 03-24-2003, 08:28 PM

Hey Acura... actually, just check this forum:
http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/showth...threadid=90980

Suprisingly, there's been some debate about this exact car before....
If you have the paint code, any paint store should be able to mix it for you.

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 08:52 PM

yaeh but now i'm fricking confused b/c at that link u gave me people say it was Nogaro Blue (s4) or Avus Blue

Duckydos · 03-24-2003, 09:03 PM

That links goes to another link... crazy, eh?
The closest FACTORY color that you are going to get is Audi's Nogaro Blue or Avus Blue, that's the closest factory... but it's a custom color.

Quote:

the blue is a custom tri-stage pearl. Thats all i can say

I think the Nogaro and Avus blue's are both great colors. Let us know what you decide. Are you painting the car yourself?

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 09:16 PM

No, somebody is going to do it for me so i have to tell him what color i want first and then see if he can find it. Is there a big difference between Nogaro Blue & avus BLue?

MAXed Out · 03-24-2003, 09:18 PM

Actually i might try to look for a custom color that is close to that BMW cause I love that color! The Civic Si is some what close to that

nonovurbizniz · 03-24-2003, 10:51 PM

DUDE any reputable paint shop has a big book FULL of paint colors... most will blend you ANY color you want...

just tell them you want ppg paint and it to look like the color in the picture. If they can't do that your at the wrong paint shop.

MAXed Out · 03-26-2003, 09:12 PM

Yeah that's what i'm going to do~ Thanks
