Where to stop, may as we’ll carry on with colour scheme lighter colour under arch protection doesn’t show. So not a problem for me . I think original colour is kinda olive green, if anybody can confirm ??

Chad, very nice work. Are you doing all this without a lift? I believe you are right about the colour of the factory protection.

Hi Julian, not got a lift but I’ve have these steps, next to garage I use to do the hard to get to stuff, only thing you have to turn car round to do front end ..is there a code for the olive colour underseal finish ?? I’m thinking about dropping subframe and repainting, and all other bits and bobs , personally not into plastic coating things, as you can see what’s going on with paint, ok it’s not to everyone’s taste as far as original colour for the purists, and if I ever wanted to sell , but I’m happy with it ..

Ha ha.had to admit defeat,,, Wasn’t happy with my “paint can” wing spray job three attempts and about £100 in cans could only score it 70percent , so give them to my paint suppliers to do. Will hopefully get them back tomorrow, as they are original wings just doing them for now,not blending them into doors see how this goes, didn’t want bmw paintwork altering.. Problem is even with paint code from car , seems to be a few shades of this , Car now off sorn all back together just waiting for wings fingers crossed

I think you could be right about that. Definitely a few different shades
