Thats hot nuffy, you did a great job!!

i think our cars are going to look quite a bit alike, im the final stages of dying my interior black/silver!

I will be sure not to paint mine like yours though, not that it don't look sexy though!

i agree matt, just waiting for one to come through the shop.

03monte, thanks. but it wouldn't be copying, its really the only right place to do a 2-tone break on our cars. you would have to do it the same, i say go for it man!

i agree, following the body lines is the only way to go, but im just not fond on the rear lid. please don't get me wrong, it does look good, very good in fact, it's just not me. what do you think of the whole rear lid black?
