Default Let's see your two-tone paint jobs.....

im thinking of doing a 2 tone job on my car if i get a high rise wing and ram air hood. that way i dont have to worry about color matching and painting the whole car. My ta is bright red... i was thinking black on hood roof and hatch.... not just the middle of the hood the full hood and alittle of the fender and doors. Im kinda thinking the chip foose style deal... yah know... anyone have a 2 tone job.

Two tone paint jobs don't look good on much of anything.

i agree 100%. 93-7 birds have the best shape for 2-tones of all the 4th gens. the orange/black looks really nice. thats sworaz's car on here now. well, its in his sig now, so i guess he's the newest owner

there's also the guy with another 2-tone bird on here aswell, its white on the bottom, and a dark grey up top, with a red pinstripe. i cant think of his user name though. i'm sure you guys know who i'm talking about

and theres also green dragons car: https://ls1tech.com/forums/member.php?u=37319 -which many people have a grudge with, many people with closed minds as far as the use of different/out of the norm colors. if it were black instead of green no body would have anything negative to say. personally, i like it. i like different.

i never understood the allure of a two tone paint job like that. it doesnt look that bad, but imho it doesnt look **** either. ever since foose got famous people started rockin that type of setup.

I'm Eric, now you and I are friends lol
Do you have those pics of my car on your fquick page? If so add me as a friend.

Noticed we have similar mods and make the same kind of power. What kind of track times have you put down so far? Or do you not take yours to the track?

So far my best is a 12.8 at 113. I can get out of the hole to save my life. That time was with a 2.1 60'. Mitchell (guy that build/used to own that car) and I were pretty much dead nuts even when we raced. We used to roll around pretty much every day sturrin up trouble and makin noise...good times...
