my car (84 GS) needs a paintjob. it has the factory red paint on it and it is reaaaallyyy faded. ive been thinking about a two tone paintjob...
so as the title says, post pictures of two tone first gens!
thanks in advance.

 

NOT MINE

 

That's hot.

I was thinking of going two-tone when I paint my car this spring, but I'm not exactly the best painter in the world. I'll probably just stick with a respray in silver, though I think it would look good if the lower half underneath the trim was that dark grey.

 

Two tone would make the car look very very eighties (even late seventies). Maybe you just pick up a Ford Granada to get the two tone out of your system and do the 7 proud. Everyone loves something, my brother in law had a pig on the farm everyone loved so there still is someone who could love a Granada. http://www.americangranada.com/

 

Now if that didn't sway you from going two-tone, this might. PS, NO DISRESPECT INTENDED TO ANY RX7 OWNER WITH AN ORIGINAL TWO-TONE PAINT JOB!

 

I remember seeing a Pacecar scheemed First Gen once.

Anyone have that photo, it was hot as hell

 

I like our cars cause they look 80's late 70's also why I like the SA better.




Someone here has a black and red, and it is sexy.

 

The Pacer is an amazing vehicle......

Yeah...but I have a friend that is doing the Mako Shark (Corvette) paint scheme on his 1st Gen....I'll post pics once he finishes.

Here is my 85 GSL-SE with a homemade 2 tone paint scheme. I will have it repainted the right way later this year.

nice

 

me

 

found this on the fourm last year

 

lwnslw-- your car is ******* hot!!

kim--that car is gorgeous also

2 tone on the first gen looks great. i need to learn how to use photoshop so i can play around and figure out what scheme i eventually want to go with. im thinking maybe something similar to lwnslw. i like the red line to seperate the colors.

 

Before pic --- the rear of the sa on the dolley


After pic two tone black red

 

i saw the SA at DGRR, but i didnt see you.

 

THANKS........
I am looking forward to having it professionally painted so it will look better.
I am also going to paint all the rubber strips silver to match the lower half and hopefully I will get some Panasports to set it off Ol'Skool style.

Also, I thru in the Red stripe for contrast as well as to match the Red brake calipers and rotor hats.

Nope I was not there as I had to work. Charles, his daughter and her boyfriend went.

 

DAAAMN, Im feelin that black/red. Looks soo good.

NEED MORE PICS!!!!

I just may have decided on the next color scheme....

 

Here is another photo of my red/silver GSL, plus a photo of a shaded paint job I did, bright silver on top, shaded to a charcoal silver on the rockers.

 

I like the full two tone look,but I wanted something a little more subtle and stealthy for my car.
I borrowed the "cockpit" design of the Acura NSX,1st gen Eclipse and 90's Camaros to seperate the glasshouse from the body while not making a large color break line.Combined with tinted windows,I think it came out very smooth and sleek......

 

i saw this 240 and decided this is how i want my paint. top half and hood black and lower half maybe a dark blue or candy apple red. i just painted my 7 black but im gonna change the paint. and who ever said that 2 tone paint is outdated i think 2 tone paint looks good if done right

 

thanks everyone so far for the pics.
theyre looking great.
and i agree with vptuning, who said that two tome paint is outdated?
keep them comming.
