2 Tone Paint Job, is it Played out???

wrx03.4wz · 05-27-2009, 09:14 AM

I like the 2 tone Paint jobs on the Team Orange Cars. But is it too much for a regular non kitted car? The car would be Aspen white (lower) and Black (Upper)
What do you guys think? Should I just respray all white or 2 tone?

Subiebobby · 05-27-2009, 10:05 AM

i think the darker color should be on the bottom imo

There are many two tone cars on this site. And all of the ones that look good are low and kitted. I dont think you can pull it off on a stockbody nor do i feel any stock car can pull off a two tone.

altezza2impreza · 05-27-2009, 11:06 AM

you have to use the stock lines if this is going to look decent. just regular lines going anywhere will look ridic. if you want i can photoshop some stuff. gimme some colors and a good large pic of your car.

KaptainKandy · 05-27-2009, 11:12 AM

So long as it doesn't look like the STi in the F&F its all good.

Panda powah!

Le Saboteur · 05-27-2009, 11:36 AM

you cant really go wrong with white and black. actually, i think most colors with black would look o.k. if done right...i certainly don't think you NEED a body kit or anything, but a complete stocker 2 toned will probably look like doo doo

who cares, its about what you like on your car, not what everyone else likes.

you speak of teh panda. panda looks good.

If you want to do black on top, I vote for only the pillars and roof be black. My biggest problem with that paint scheme though is the paint lines on the C-pillar/rear quarter. There's no really clean body line to follow there to give you a clean transition between the black and whatever other color.

I say go for it though. I always thought a car would look cool white or black with a colored roof, like a dark purple or red. No idea how it would look in real life though, probably a job for a photoshop guru.

Here's an idea for a 2 tone paint job:

Hey OP, search for Lynk's car in the Member's Car Gallery. He has an 04/05 White bottom/ Black top STI. His car is beautiful. He just posted some pics within the last few pages of the "sooper aggressive scooby set up" thread.
