C32 latest mod

I always wanted a C32 in Orion blue so I decided to paint my car BMW LE-MAN blue. I always liked the color of the M5.

+1

Looks great! Kind of amusing to put a frequent BMW M color on an AMG though...

BTW, any plans for your LM centers? IMHO, they went better with your old color... now, I'd think bright silver or matte black would work well with your new hue.

Dont go with orange brake claipers as there is enough Florida Gator Fans out there. Black with white Brembo logo would look good. Maybe even gold.

You could paint your wheels championship gold for that Subaru look?

looks absolutely beautiful...great color...now IMO i would do the calipers the same color...or do them in silver and the rim insides in the blue...or the wheels in chrome and the calipers in the blue...either way i think it would look amazing. AND YES....GATORS RULE!!!!
