hey guys..im only on the bottom side of this car on the project so far but im so tossed up on paint when i get there i wanna know for sure..im going to do a two tone paint color..right on that body line that runs at the top of the fenders across the top of the door (below window) and down 1/4 panel..kinda like this (not these colors though) also no white line to seperate the colors

Image


so im thinking these colors on the bottom half..

competition orange (or roughly)
Image


or bullitt green
Image


or sonic blue
Image

MY neigbhors car is exactly like the first one, but a notch. I think it looks real good!


Its hard to say which would look better, are you saying that you are gonna use black on top?
I would look for more pics of some two tone cars to get an idea.

black and orange look very good together. i don't know about blue and black, not sure if there'd be enough color contrast. i think the CO and black top would look good, or red/black.

Damn hard decision you have to make, LOL and I like both those last ones, When i seen the black/grey one i thought about that for my car. I am getting a repaint in spring, was planning on all black but now i might be re-thinking.

exactly what im going through..the foxbodys have that perfect line for a two tone paint..im really leaning towards the black/charcoal, black/dark green or black/ orange(or copper)...idk that mineral grey is cool too..just maybe a little darker.

yeah I guess with different rims it would be nice. Just those things kill it for me

x2

Im not a fan of two tone foxes but if I were to do one i'd prob do it without a white line separating the two colors and the two colors wouldn't be bright colors. the orange and black would prob go good together but would remind me of halloween and ****.

That grill on the first pic is a stock lx grill bumper with the middle section cut out and isn't hard to do if your respraying the bumper cover

I know it's an lx bumper but I don't see how it's done cuz looking at a stock lx one looks like with that piece removed it will leave holes
