Request: SUNFIRE two tones
Thursday, October 14, 2010 11:32 PM
Like the title says, looking for sunfires with two tone paint jobs. My 'vert will be going to Waydes shortly, and Im trying to find a good combination of where the two tone starts on the front of the car, and how it ties in with the body line along the side/rear. I did do some searching on the site, and the net in general, and couldnt really find anything other than Pete Strains fire (red with black hood and roof).



Trying to incorporate something that looks good with the streetfire kit, and Ive tried p/s'ing some myself, but havent came up with anything that I absolutely LOVE, so if anyone can help me out, it would be greatly appreciated

Back to the drawing board....

This is the 2-tone line I like for the front of a Fire. Follows the body lines the best IMO.

not a bad two tone idea but damn that car would look 100x better just orange.

yeah the colors remind me of a Snooki of Jersey shore, like she layed in the sun too long and turned from Orange to Red.

I like the gold and red one. but i think it would look better if the line dropped down a little farther. When I was thinking about a two tone I wanted to follow the sharp line of the sunfire rear quarter panel and then go straight to the sharp line of the sunfire fenders. From there i wanted to wrap around the front end below the headlights just like the car above. I'm not sure if you catch what I'm saying, but i thought it looked pretty good. I don't like how a lot of cars break the line at the windows. It looks half assed to me unless the top color is black.

I actually like the red/black one's scheme much better. Having the top color come onto the bumper makes the car look "tame."

Look up Snowman's car; I'm pretty sure he tow-toned it black and blue last year.

Petes looks awsome for a coupe, but I dont know how well it would work on a vert since it will look kinda silly with the top down.

To me it just looks that way due to the lack of evil-eyes.

Kinda a DSm style paint job. Black Roof with a Blue body and Black inner vent are on the hood

I really really like the first chop, but I'd stop the paint at the hood, I don't like it going into the front bumper. I think that with the painted rims will look sexy

Hmm just thought about it, do you have any pics with the top up? It might look better having red on bottom and black on top instead of black on bottom, red in middle, then a black top? It might look fine, just hard to picture with the top down.

Well, 95% of the time I drive the car the top is down, so thats why I posted the ones that I did...

Also, just checked now....I dont have ANY pics of the car completed with the top up. That just reinforces what I said above lol.
