I want more of a pure white, and I've been thinking the BMW M3 Alpine White. But I also really like Adon's shade of white too. I think something close to that kind of color would be great. I don't want it to look IP though.

And that rolling shot of Chubbylita looks absolutely stunning. Still looks like you got the sidemarker delete though, haha.

Yeah that sounds clean as fvk but a pearlescent white is always a beautiful color..

If you're painting your car and looking at white. May I suggest a matte white paint? Or even an overlay.

Here is the BMW Alpine White on the left. And a MATTE white one at right.

Notice how pure the white is on the matte white. That's what I would get. =)

I went with the BMW alpine white on my G, and I love it. makes IP G's look yellow next to mine. I dont have any good pics, just iphone pics

however, the matte white BMW posted above is DAMN sexy as well

I've thought about the matte white, and that color comparison picture was extremely helpful.

Thanks so much.

I'm thinking about getting a new front too, but we'll see. It all depends on when Dustin completes this new Kuruma splitter.
