Default Paint?

Ive been looking at a 2-tone but i wanna know your opinion and im curous about the damage to my wallet for something like this



The lower blue would be more of a dark navy unlike in the photoshop here:
Couple it with the photoshop of the toys on the front of the car in the new member area.
The 2nd pic is a poopy photoshop back when i was new to it but the color is better. [edit]I would go without the blue tint but a 20% black

I love two tone paint jobs! But if you are intending to put blue tint on the windows, in my opinion.... dont. That would absolutely drive me crazy! I think regular tint would look great with a two tone paint job. Im telling you though, I like the color of your car. A two tone paint job will set you back anywhere from 800-3000.

If you're gonna do black for the upper surfaces, I'd look for a CF hood and trunk.

If i do a CF hood and trunk, id do the roof and and just paint the bottom. CF is a different clro from straight black. its more like gunmetal..

And no, im going to do brobablya 20% tint of black soon. I just dont know how soon

IDK how you'd do the roof. I know that autobody shops could, I just don't know how ....... but that is the route that I'd go ...... also, there is true black CF, just hard to find.
