new idea

Ok so i have some candy tangerine laying around my shop. I'm thinking of doing a 2 tone. Candy tangerine on bottom, black on top. with black wheels. I think it would look good and stand out

what do you guys think

it wouldnt be a straight 2 tone. Would split the front bumper come up over the wheel well and then divide the car

i might put a silver pinstrip on the car to seperate the colors

if it was me painting the car i would put the orange on top. that color will come out a hell of a lot nicer in the sun then black will.

I've never been a fan of two tone's on 4th Gen F-Bodies, only a few. What kind of car?
