What paint should I use to paint the rear valance, side skirts, and front lip white? Can I get a can of AlpinWeiss II spray paint from a Stealer? Any suggestions?
Thanks!

when i needed paint for my //m, i had to go through the stealer. it was easy enuff to just goto the source.
i have an 87 325i. i like the front lip being white. unless you have the is package, i like the sideskirts and rear valence stock black. i thought about painting it white but i'm not convinced it will look "right".
I don't think you can get a spray paint. Do you have any painting experience? If you want it to look good, it is hard to paint well and takes quite a bit of skill (I don't have any yet) but I don't know how well a spray paint would work.
If you go to a good paint shop, I'm sure they could match the color, and then paint them for you so the colors would match. If you had the time, you could prep the car, and then get the whole car painted. Some of the better paint shops charge somewhere around 5k though.
Good Luck
