White FD with black top??
I was wondering if any1 has tried painting a white FD with a black roof. Now a days new vehicles like bmw, benz, scion etc have white cars with black tops. I was wondering if any1 has tried this paint scheme or if any1 has tried it out on photoshop. I think the cut off point from black to white might look weird on the back/side but i'm curious what it would look like.

But Mahjik that does not really apply to a real Fd. The Fortune kit has completly different lines, the back pillar cuts off so the paint can be cut off. But on a regular body of the FD the back pillar merges into the body so the paint from black to white would be an obvious line. Whereas in the fortune, there is no line because its too diff bodies, meaning the hood and pillars are cut off then the side body starts.

Just did a few quick work on paint, see what I mean. The door has this curve to it where it distorts the back pillar cut off point. Also the hood line of black would be higher up then the back pillar would be. A section of the door would have to be painted to keep the black line straight.
Not really liking it... :\

Again, it's not my thing but those are just pictures for reference.
