I dont think I like that two tone, I like the window and roof lines but I think it looks like you went to maaco and asked for the cheapest 2-tone because of the way it goes right against the hatch line and hood line, but then again it is probably the best way to two tone it any other way may look weird.

Doesn't follow the edge of the hood, depending on how you do it.

it flows into the hood. go outside and check it out.

and thats pretty much the only two tone that would look clean on a tib and not break up the lines of the car.. if you do the lower curvy lines for the two tone, it breaks up the look of the car and makes it look totally different.. it also doesn't flow right that way.

Thanx, now we get a discussion started laugh.gif maybe its a idea to give him more black accents but lower on the car, so there is not to much silver there... or maybe silver, candy red, en black accents.. or blue indeed because i have a lot of blue accents inside my car, under my hood and mij brakes.

the line of the car is indeed very important. because i dont think that u should break it, but is parrallel a option?

i have a few weeks for more oppinions, ideas, and examples, at least is my tib almost ready (friday) with the alpine turbo setup!

socks, ty for the sketch wink1.gif

yeah, you could do it that way, or just do the entire hood and it would look fine.. the way the line comes in from under the window kinda stops at the pillar and would still flow well if the hood was same color as top of car. by keeping the Ixion grill and bottom of rear bumper the flat black, the colors would even flow better.

heres pretty much the lines i was talking about to use on a two tone tib in this video..
