I wanna say white or the ghost flag, but check out the 1st or 2nd page on the link I posted for the group buy, some guy put pics of his black e36 with a red flag.

How easy or hard is it to remove the decal if you wanted to? Say you were washing your car and a part of the flag got messed up and you wanted to remove the rest of the flag, how hard would it be? Would it mess up the paint? If they are just vinyl without adhesive I would think it would remove easily.

I am getting dark grey for a kind of ghost effect. I agree that silver would look best on Alaska Blau.

Don told me that the metallic is pretty extreme. Nowhere near how the paint would be metallic. I opted for gray instead of silver metallic because of that. Just a heads up.

word up thanks for the heads up...

im thinking maybe medium blue on an alaska blue car....that could work pretty well i think....its tough cause im not sure how dark of blue i should go and such.

i want it to be subtle, but i also dont want it to be too close to the current shade of my car and you not be able to tell...oh well i guess ill make a decision soon if i decide to jump on this

how would matte black look on a schwartz?

I was thinking charcoal metallic but now that you mentioned the metallic is pretty extreme, I don't know.

Matte black would be too hard to see. Won't notice it unless you really look. Which isn't neccasarily a bad thing. Gray would be a little eye catching.
I like to keep things simple and sleek.


The graphite would be pretty cool.


Any dark grey on Schrawz will be sweet.

He doesn't have dark gray, so I am going with charcoal.
