You are correct sir! Orient Blue to be exact. Thanks!

Its the same color as the 330ci I just retired. Either I really like that color or I am really going overboard trying to get my moneys worth for the touch up paint I bought a couple years ago lol.

I really want to whiten up my angel eyes and get clear bulbs for all my turn signals (well not he front ones cause they are white I am betting.

Hey that makes me think of something, maybe I could swap the front and back turn signals.....

Anyone try this yet?
