I know your interested in 3 series but saw this thread and thought of dropping you my f10 550 Tanzanite blue color. It's is freakin sick in person and in daylight. Pics don't do it justice at all. But I would paint any parts body color. I am having a custom lip spoiler and rear diffuser painted to match. Enjoy

This picture makes me depressed, am I waiting 6 months and paying thousands for a plain black car? Please post a photo that doesn't make me feel like I made a mistake.

It must be expensive getting parts painted to match.

not really..got rear difuser painted all for 280 bucks, and rear lip spoiler all together 80 bucks..Amazon and eBay options..many out there..as for color like i said dont go based on pics..it will always have that dark black look in pics..but once you see it in person and in daylight the ting shines..i get compliments all teh time from people who see it and ask what color that is..it definetly does not look like black at all...just one advised make sure you pick a very light color tone for the interior, i have the light grey individual leather and it looks sick with it.

chin up buddy you will be happy once you see it.
