Thanks man,
The paint looks better than taht though, thats a bad pic.
I ended up scrapping those wheels though, they were heavy and the two front ones for the set were bent.

I'm moving on to some flat black FN01r-c's when I get the money. 17x8 all around!

That's some wide wheels you got up in the front.

i like the using strips to blend the colors. im more than likely going to lose the yellow and do a gray / red two tone. red top, gray bottom.

I was HOPING to see a couple of cool fade jobs, or maybe even a "starsky and Hutch"...

I'm thinking about have my car fade from a dark dark, almost black purple to black.

Its damn hard to photoshop exactly waht i'm looking for though!! Turns out lookin like a rotten plumb if you just to a color overlay!!!!

RFMN7 did a thread about this last year at this time. Search under his name or "two tone", he had a bunch of people photoshop his car. It actually looked nifty.

I think I have pretty much the tackiest looking two tone FC ever... I just formatted my computer so I'll try and find where I put the pics. I'd go take new ones, but it was so hilarious that I couldn't stand keeping it this way after I got it so it's in being repainted right now. The thing is though, that it was done with the intent of looking good, which makes it that much worse. It's one of those love/hate things... heavy on the hate.
