when you say two tone, what other color are we talkin here. Pewter would seem like a difficult color to make look good with a 2 tone paint job. Keep us posted.

Thumbs up you gotta go grand sport

instead of white go black but with the same exact stripe size and you gotta put the red stripes
the only thing that would make this look better is if you get the black zr1 wheels
contact mike96z
he says he knows where you can get them for 500 delivered

^ I like the scheme of that one...I think it would look better if the black just went all the way down on the front.
