Hello all, long time lurker and commenter here. I know there are not too many BMWs out there with this paint color so I wanted to make a thread so that people know why it is so special to me. I got this car just under two years ago after trading up from my E92 335i and immediately started modifying the car. I am not the original owner of the car as there was one before me, but it was spec'd out with some unique options like the Individual Paint. I never made a thread or posted much of the things I changed on the car but I figured now is as good a time as any to show the progress. Enjoy!
Black Betty "Betty" aka @_das_bae_ got her name from a unique paint color that appears black unless the Sun reveals the metallic flake. Having a rare paint color prompted a particular color choice for the wheels to be refinished in. Just like the paint on the body, the wheels also need full sunlight to reveal their true color. This build is nothing super fancy and is going for the OEM+ look.
