I was thinking of going to a dark blue metallic, base coat/clear coat. I have seen photos of similar paint on some european 115's. I saw a very beautiful one in Norway that had just won an auto show. I'm thinking of redoing the interior with grey leather seats and the rest in M-B Tex or possibly custom stitched in ultra-suede. I'm also planning to have all the chrome redone by a custom chrome shop in Portland. I don't know the name of the shop but one of my collegues at work builds, of all things, low-riders and has had incredible results from that shop. He is also planning to help me with all the body work as he has developed quite a talent with a long board sander. It's a long term project, but I think it will be well worth it in the end.
