                      Matte clear coat man!! Clear coat is the most important in Wisconsin haha. I'm doing this specifically for rust

                        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.

                                          Sand after every coat. Gloss isn't hard to fuck up. It's a single stage paint, it's fucking bullet proof.
