i'd try to have the insurance company pay for a 98+ front end/head lights/and the oem itr lip....then get it repainted m3 red, since your car is red already.

if you're going to keep your bronze rims, your 1st best bet would be black, and then red, and last- white....

I wouldnt let the color of your wheels hinder your paint color options, this will probably be the last time you ever paint your car but you can always paint your Rotas or buy new wheels

trust me... check out the VW "offroad grey", I dont have a picture but its like a bluish grey metallic.

I was thinking about painting my DA that color before I decided on white w/silver pearl. Im still waiting to see a Honda painted this color

Wouldn't they just be painting it the same color? I wish if I got in an accident insurance would help pay for my whole car to get painted... I'd get SSBP if I were you.
