Lightbulb Ordering G80 - help with colour ! :D

Hey ,

As the topic says , I would like to pick a color and froze it with stealth PPF , I`m hesitating between toronto red and aventurine red or going completely other way with Gray (brooklyn or skyscrapper).

I would be very greateful if you could post your frozen G80/82`s so It would make my life a bit easier

I`m upgrading from m340i , I hope to have a blast with G80

Go over to the photos forum. There are color-specific and stealth PPF-specific threads there. Take a look through those.

I'd say a large part of what paint you should go for is what you're trying to accomplish. If you're trying to remain understated and blend in, the greys do that pretty well (except dravit). Any reds will be eye catching and garner more attention, stealth PPF or not.

Personal vote goes to Aventurine/Toronto red, either one looks good. Toronto is bright and Aventurine is dark so take your pick there. Toronto red is so uncommon that it looks like an individual paint at this rate. I think I've seen more SMB's than TR's on these forums

Aventurine is nice, Toronto isn’t my favorite shade of red. If I were to go gray, Dravit is far superior to the other shades.

i had a hard time picking a color but then realized that i wanted red calipers and silverstone interior. that helped me narrow down my color choices and i went with tanzanite blue. imo very underrated color. looks black at night and helps hide the front grill a bit. in the sun it looks beautiful.

id say figure out which calipers, wheels, and interior you want, and then go from there.

How about Twilight purple or Indianapolis red? I think they'd both look good with stealth ppf

I’m on a Twilight kick lately, so +1 for Stealth Twilight.
