Default New paint: Imola red tons-o-pics
long story short, car got keyed... ended up painting the whole car

I had trouble deciding between renaissance, which the car was initially.. or to go with a dif shade.. like imola red...

ended up going imola red, which is the red of M3... which is almost exactly the same as ren red...

fell in love with my car again...

I had OCD when deciding which shade to go with... I wanted to see the colour in dif lightings.. like cloudy and sunny days... so here is imola red in dif lightings...

HERE ARE THE PICS, I HOPE U ENJOY... and srry about the tech difficulties.. im challenged, mentally and technically

OH YAH... I KNOW I NEED TO LOWER IT AND I KNOW IT WOULD LOOK BETTER WITH FOGS...

ps. anyone selling a suspension or fogs, can u please shoot me pm.. thanks..





first 2 were taken on overcast day with cam no flash







last 3 were taken with cam w/flash



taken with my phone on same day



at night with my phone





last 2 pics on sunny day with phone

HOPEFULLY THIS WAS USEFUL FOR SOME...

That is a great color, not to light of a red, and not too dark. You will lower it though right? Your rims will really stand out once lowered.

Where'd you find it? As soon as I sell mine I was gonna hunt one down, but figured most likely in Cali or something..
