Hello

I was doing my normal thing of checking out website for cars and like most of you, I check out ebay.com for new stuff.

I saw this Accord and it's got a two tone color sceme that I don't think I've seen before.
I've seen hoods, roof, and trunks painted....but not like this.

I was wondering what you guys/gals think about this?!?!?!
LIKE or DISLIKE?!?!

yeah i know, the owner looks funny. hehehe
his shoes are too big :D

Anyways...for my own personal opinion
I kinda like it...it's got class, it's different, and it's not ricey.
It's a little on the pimp side, but I think it's because of the color.

I would probably choose a different color sceme if it was my choice.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?!?!?

it looks aight...ive seen this car in person. he has a 96-97 front, the license plate holder in back was shaved. at the time of show when i seen it it had like some bigger niches on it and tribal graphics in the free space on the silver..it doesnt look like that much right now...but it was a sight for sore eyes with the minitruck style tribal stuff. :flash:

whoa that's cool that you've seen that ride in person.

i think it's a great idea.
what other colors do you think would look good??!?!

maybe a blue and white?!?!

Wow, I'm surprising myself by liking that. I've seen several two tone cars like that before and never liked one, but that one is well done. Other colors I think might look good are dark blue(top)/silver(bottom), dark blue/ beigey-silver, dark green/silver, dark green/beigey-silver.

BTW, is that a yellow Ferrari in the garage!? :eek:

Anyone seen the black and white 2-tone prelude from the Atl Area that was up at Regionals, he's usually stuck in the Yoko booth with a Parada sticker on the side, but it's nice, he didn't have all the stickers when he wasn't in the Yoko booth.

HAHAHAHAHAHA OH NO...a copy cat!!!!!
someone else has my ride!!!

guess what?!?!?!
I too saw "my car" the other day.
it was a 4th gen accord with my aftermarket rims!!!
it was strange looking at it.
(The only difference was that the car was an EX and green)
but still the idea was there.

it's too bad it wasn't me!!!!
if it was, i would have asked you to stop me and introduce yourself.!!!!
:D

i think it looks pretty tight. its not too busy with the two tone. some people go crazy with the way that they blend two colors together, but with the straight line it keeps it clean.

My mother always said, if you can't say something nice...

No comment.

*shrug* It's ok. Just not really my style. Too lowrider-y.



And are you guys sure that's a Ferrari? I initially thought del Sol...seriously...but then again they don't make a yellow Sol :(.

get some maroon body graphics on the side to tie the colors together, likewise some silver on the maroon, maybe something on the hood. then it will be tight

now that you mention it, it does kinda remind me of a old camino style paint job!

i think its definately different but needs something more on the side to take away from the dull silver..:ylsuper

Custom two-tone paint job with a HAND-PAINTED barbed wire pinstripe breaking it up.

I like the color scheme. Sometimes I wear a maroon shirt with my gray dickies, it works, so does the car.

I like the idea of 2-tone paint, I just think another color instead of "silver." From the pic, it looks like primer gray, which makes it look verrry stupid. Maybe it looks better in person....I donno. That is my 2¢ worth.
