2 Tone

Post by glasswars » Thu May 03, 2007 8:45 pm

With paint coming up soon, I've been tossing around some ideas.. what would you guys think about 2 tone? The red would be a little darker than the Blaze Red. The line would follow just under our cars style lines on the side and on the rear.

I tried doing the best I could pasting it on there, but I'm only decent at photoshop.

if you were going for the spidy mobile sure, but im not feeling the blue/red look. black/red or dark-dark grey/red would look good.

HAHA wow now that you mentioned spiderman that totally killed it for me, LOL omg that's so funny.

The blue is 95% staying, so if I were to two-tone it, it would be finding a color that goes with the blue.

Good thought, a silver stripe in between to set it off would be nice, too.

Try white, silver, or gunmetal. One of those might look good. I'm thinking silver might look the best.

I liked the first color combo better... I didn't even think Spider Man when I saw it... an electric burgundy isn't red :P

But I'd lose the eyelids, they clash with the color division line from the side.

Hey that photochopped rear decklid looks schweet.
