So,
The black paint on my dear 99 CL is beat up, bodywork will be started soon. and i am debating between keeping it the stock color oor; painting it "Sepang Bronze". Usually used on the BMW's, I'm trying to imagine it on the CL, and i think it would look good. Just want to get your opinions on it. annnnd go:

^you're the one that wanted help.
Please include a picture of your car + the color of the car you want it to be painted.

maybe then someone can photoshop it.
Does this sound like a dumb idea to you?

Enough with the attitude, this is an infiniti color, but will give you some idea...

Sorry, was just trying to get more details from him.
blackack saves the day, yet again.

after seeing the infiniti color, I think sepang bronze would look sexy.
wish that inifniti colored CL had shots in the day time.

I think the darker bronze on the bmw would look amazing on a 1st gen. In the future, if you're asking questions, please post a reference point, like the color you want to do

Just my .02, but nothing beats a clean black car. They just look amazing. If it were me (I own a black 2.3 CL 5-speed). I'd just keep it black.

everyone has different taste! :-)

If i had to redo my paintjob all over again, i would go with something like gun metal. I love darker grey metallic colors.

That color would surely look nice and different! Go for it
