I have seen a couple, but it doesn't look good split at the body trim line. There are a couple of members with 2 tone jobs where the colors are split at the top radius of the door/fender that look good. I think one is "greendragon" or something loke that. I don't remember the other guys name but its an orange & black LT1 TA.
