Two-tone, different and stylish. Although if it's just for drag, why not do something more outrageous?

Personally I would go with the 2 tone paint job.

I've considered doing this to my z for a while now. I already have the black roof I just need to get a black spoiler and a black hood. The only thing is that the hood lines, pillar lines, and spoiler don't match up to make a line.

I would paint the black a little bit higher than what you have it on the photoshop. Just my 2 cents.

Another for 2-tone. Just make sure to keep the accent (though you could do a little styling on it if you like), and have the 2-tone follow the curve of the hood (around it, not through).

Sorry for the sloppy lines. I did this while talking on the phone (and I didn't spend much time on it besides.

Yeah, though I don't know why abadss brought this one back. Oh well, like I said, I didn't spend much time on my photoshop job, and it gives people more of an idea of what it would look like, so at least I contributed something.
