    what looks best?

    I have to do some rust repair on the bottom half of my body, where the tutone color is
    so, I was thinking of possibly changing that color to black...along with maybe blacking out part of the tail light bezels.
    I saw some of blaze's pics and got inspired
    what do you guys like best?
    front and side pics: black 2-tone
    rear pic 1: black 2-tone & partial blacked out taillight bezels
    rear pic 2: black 2-tone & more blacked out taillight bezels
    rear pic 3: just black 2-tone

    I like the last pic alot. I wish you could cut the 2 tone off right at the side trim and not have it go above. But it still looks great. Need some bigger meats in the back tho

      Rear pic two!!! I like the blackout, may be good carried to the front too. Your car has a muscular look to it with those rims and the stance, and putting the two-tone on it will be awesome, kind of give it an old-school muscle look even more fully. Great work man, go for it!!!

          I like picture #3, but I guess that's not an option cause you ain't got the turbine wheels anymore. I, however, still do have turbines, and I already have the lower part of the car blacked-out, so I'm thinking of blacking out the turbines too, just like you have it in the pic.

            Oh yeah, and you leave your tail lights alone!

              yea, I was leaning towards just doing the 2-tone and leaving the taillights...
              as far as the turbines...
              they will be blacked out like that for winter wheels, I just wanted to post that side pic for reference.
              thanks for the opinions, guys!

              here's a few other front/side pics with the black 2-tone and the spring/summer/fall months.

                Lol, you are probably going to get pissed at me Colin, but.....

                I like the look of the car as-is more so than the photochopped ideas.


                I think all that black detracts from the style; the.. ..aura if you will, of the car. I really like the look of it as you have it now, I cannot say the same for the photochops.
                IMO that is, FWIW

                    I prefer it as-is too. The two tone with the black doesn't do it for me.

                      hmm...
                      what about a little darker version of that stock color? just on the bottom...
                      maybe not quite as dark as the pic..but something close to this.
