(E90) Official Monaco Blue E90 Thread

Pyrat 2 · 07-09-2005, 01:49 PM

Will get a 55% VLT - very subtle. It will look a bit darker though because of the black interior. My e46 330i has the 55% and I like the subtle look plus the UV protection. The interior looks brand new with no fading even after 5 years. Unfortunately, I had to reschedule my e90 and now will not have the windows done till next week.

Nice! 40-55% is more to my liking too, nothing too dark but enough to help with shading and some anonymity. Plus your MB just looks better with darkened windows now.

Very nice, I pick up my wife's Monaco Blue tomorrow. I love that color... especially since you won't see too many of them on the road.

Everytime I see the monaco blue or other colors, they look great with those colors, I was thinkining of going for monaco blue, but I was not the brave one who can handle all the scratches I might have with that colour, so I went for silver for my very fisrt car,
but I'm still jealous of those colors. : )

Those stockrims are awesome; I gotta get some for my E90....

Your pictures do the car justice. I saw Monaco Blue in person and was really impressed. I can't wait to see the new blue color coming out in September.

stinky · 09-05-2005, 06:47 PM

what type of wheels are those in your post? Is that a 17 spoke? Those look really nice.

rlc · 09-05-2005, 11:29 PM

Dealer tag for the chromed stock 330i rims is $1495. It's not exactly my taste but the chrome does sell....

hermanh · 09-06-2005, 01:57 AM

Well, I'm afraid chroom just isn't my thing..............
