                          no matter what color you paint you're supposed to do clear coat. What I'm saying is, for your "matte/flat silver/grey or whatever" it'll look unfinished, like a primer paint job.

                              Silver works but grey would look unfinished. I really like the new frozen silver.

                              Alpine would be the easiest being a single stage color, but Henna Red is an awesome color too.

                                That color works cause it's a newer body style. on an E30, it'd look out of place

                                          Im scared to do a gloss because its going to look like dick. Just saying... also, do I sand the base coat before I put on the primer? Like could that help smooth things out? And the base coat isn't that shiny right? I test painted my fender, and it didn't turn out shiny, but it looks good.
