Paint scheme opinion

Post by shtbxr22 »

I was inspired by the banner, but am thinking of doing black on the bottom. of course, this will have to wait till the fenders/bumper are on. what do you guys think?

The silver and black is too much of a contrast. If I were to go two tone, I'd want a gunmetal and black combo.

But that's my $0.02.

I think if you really want to do the silver and black, though, black on bottom with darker rims would look primo.

Now that I think about it... the bottom one might look better if you put the roof rack back on.

+1 Two tone is ugly.
I have a OBS that will be 1 color eventually.

Your Silver looks really nice as is.

That silver looks amazing - best color for wagons IMHO.

get the windows tinted real dark. that should appease your craving for something black on the car.
