Two-Tone SS/SC?
My prior ride was an 88 cavalier Z24. It had a two tone paint job, bright blue with the skirts/lips a silver color. I loved that paint job, it stood out everywhere I went and looked just plain awesome in my opinion.



So I got to thinking, what if I painted my SS S/C to match, but instead of blue and silver, have it victory red and silver? I had a member back at www.v6z24.com whip me up a quick photoshop (props to 88cavalierZ24) to see what it would look like. What do you guys think?

If I were to have it painted it would be a bright, glossy silver, similar to that of my 88 Z24.

I say that if you're going to do that, get some stripes to match, then it'd look great!

IMO, if it was more of a gunmetal color with the gunmetal wheels i think it would look a little better.

That actually looks real good, I like the 2 tone and the stripes. You should do a darker color like a grey, IMO.

Theres only a couple more things id do to finish that look off. Id paint my headlights to match the silver, and id also paint the black plastic grill silver as well. That would set the front end off alot dude.
