        Lots of sanding and polishoing and sanding has been going on with the wheels. I can't seem to get the finish I want. Always a little line I see that I take out. lol

        But onto a question. My car needs paint. I have two colors I'm debating. It will either be Cosmos or Diamond. I like the idea of Diamond because I've never been a huge fan of black, but it won't match my jams and bay. Also because it only came on a very very small number of e36's. I was thinking Cosmos because it would match my jams and bay and would be metallic. It would also look really good in the light compared to plain gloss black.

        So what do you guys think, Cosmos or Diamond?

        P.S.- TJ, no smart ass comments=P lol

          i think plain gloss black looks better in the light than cosmos. to me cosmos always just looks like you have black paint covered with a layer of dust/dirt.

            ^I like that look though. Plus Cosmos is easier to maintain than Schwarz II.

              Match whatever your jambs/bay/deck lid undersides are. Nothing screams cheap ass ricer more than opening the door and seeing a different color.

                That's why cosmos would work better. It is pretty much just Schwarz II with metal flake and I believe a little pearl. They all revolve around black=) If I got Diamond Schwarz I would get paint mixed after the fact and spray the Jams myself. I like Diamond Schwarz more than Cosmos myself, but I don't believe it would blend into the jams well and thats the tradeoff. Bay color really doesn't matter to me because I won't have it open for anyone to see unless there is a different motor ever. lol

                  Im thinking of selling/trading the Ti for a unicycle. I'm sick of getting 36 miles per gallon and unicycles are pretty good on gas I hear. We will see what's up in the coming weeks.

                              I hope it isn't a 95 of he is asking that price. And she better be rust free. Lol the 95's for some reason are worth significantly less. Ti's aren't worth anywhere near as much as their sisters. And does it have fat trim and m style rear bumper? That'd be a sport model then.

                              Edit: FYI, mine had 148,000 miles and was rust free and I paid $2200
