Pics of Two Tone cars.

I need some pics of cars painted in a two tone. Color and black.


My SA will be going to paint in the next few days and I need some ideals.

Thanks

just my .02:

1. I think the headlight covers should be black like the rest of the top, they look kind of out of place all red like that

2. I think a dark candy green instead of the red would look really sick with a black top

Lastly, where'd you find the FB lines to color? That would be a really sweet tool to use in photoshop to mock up a BUNCH of different color schemes (i'm painting mine soon as well)

I like your idea but I'm not a fan of the offset colour'd headlight covers. It just screams 'look at me, I'm a headlight!' Neat idea though.
