Not knocking it at all I think it looks pretty cool.. Its not a shitty unique and its very different I love it.

Just wanna know like the others.. did you get halfway in and decide to go two tone or did you do something wrong perhaps and it just came out like that?

Either way looks great.

The valve covers look much better done up too. However I think a similar paint scheme on them would look nice too!

still wondering about this myself, but i'm assuming it was purposely done.

^^This. Not sure how else to ask this without sounding like a d-bag, but this paint scheme wasn't intended, right?

Either way, looks badass and Id love to see it copied over to his valve covers to 'complete the look' mistake or not!

just like you said it. we started (and it was humid out side) and as the coats went on it the paint start to go in to the low areas and start the two -tone. so we stop for the night. the next day we came back to paint again but it looked kind of cool. i was like f--- it lets rock it. it looks way better in person.

i wish i was able to make the vavle covers look the same

Honestly it's not a bad concept, but it just looks sloppy the way it sits now.

If you did the same sort of design properly with an airbrush it could look pretty cool, but as it sits I'd rather just see it all black.

It looks alot better in person, like tom said it was all because the humidity was like 85% that night that we had painted it. It was NOT done on purpose, it just happen like that. I would do the same on my car but i dont think that we could pull it off like that again. It was crazy.
