Clarion USA's video: Clarion Builds 1993 BMW E31 Gets Color Change to Carbon Black Metallic

When it came to painting the Clarion Builds BMW 850CI, we teamed up with Southern California’s New Century BMW Collision Center, a BMW certified paint and body center that knows the intricacies of all BMWs inside and out. In this video Ed Cobett, Manager of New Century BMW Collision, highlights their involvement in the Clarion Builds BMW E31 build. Also a partner for Clarion Builds’ 1974 BMW 2002 build, New Century BMW excitedly jumped at the chance to team up with Clarion again to assist in sourcing hard to find parts for the 850, as well as taking on the painstaking task of smoothing out the body work and painting the car using factory BMW paint to BMW factory guidelines in a very rare color called Carbon Black.
