I don't have photoshop on this computer, and my other one is getting formatted right now, so I wanna see what you guys can come up with.
Bare with me on the whole blurry pics thing. It was really cold, and I forgot my tripod... but please see what you can do.
I want it two-toned black. I don't care where you do it at, how it's done, I just want ideas to two-tone it.
Thanks in advance!

oh my...

That is the "theme" I'll probably be going with.
Anyone want to give it a -serious- try?

Duuude that was a serious try. lol
Need better pics but at least it gives you an idea. how about making one big black stripe in the middle kinda like it has a mohawk?

Is that what you're talking about?
I think it would look better if the colors were reversed....

go with the stock hood

carbon hood and trunk and top half of car painted black

yea... no
Sold the stock hood, love my Kaminari
My kaminari is part carbon, took cheap to get the trunk in carbon, and the two-tone needs to have the body kit involved... since that's the main thing that needs painted

This is the best I could do...if I were you and I wanted to get a good photochop, I'd take a picture in the daylight, without the blue lights on.

That's actually something similar to what i came up with last night playing in paint... now that i'm at work, i have the chance to chop it myself... but i'm really liking that idea....
*thinks*

I'm loving the bottom lip of the front bumper black, then going from there. I had always had that in mind, but supertrick, you put that nice little line with the wheel well.
This is what I came up with while on my 10 minute break.
Going to have to go bug jess and see what she has in mind

Finally, eh?! I got lost in like, Mentor-on-the-lake for.. um 3 hours? Yeah. I was like ... is that... a large body of water? Where the heck am I?!
Dang, dude. I hate scrolling down a thread, because then I have thoughts already in my head and therefore my design looks something like everyone else has done.
ANyways. Here's a quick one, my fav part is really only the front. I've seen it done on some Miatas and it looks good (I'll have to find a pic 4 u). Other than that, I don't think I was ever good at splitting the Neon for a 2-tone... and this is the only thing I did that looked remotely decent. The very edge of the stock fender flares remain yellow, as do the door handles to break up the black on the side. I tried part of the side skirt by the scoop and it looked weird yellow, unless you could fade the yellow into the black but I dunno, I never liked that.
I didn't even know you had this kit, I apparently am not on here enough to know where your SRT-4 bumper went?!

ohhh, i like the front of the bumper....
Maybe if i combine the ideas on the front bumper, and decide from there.... Hmm...
It's all going to come down to cost as well. Next week I'll drag my car to the local paint shops, and get some estimates on just a fix and respray, and also on a fix and two-tone...
(continues to play in photoshop) Thanks jess!
(Oh, and I sold my entire Razzi kit, and the SRT front a couple months ago)

i -think- i have my car chopped just how i wanted it painted right now. No one will get to see until spring though.
And sorry, but the black on top is in no way an option.
