Two tone is very 80's. I also live as if I were still stuck in 80's, I'm actually listening to boston right now (even if they were from 76, they are still 80's). I however would never paint my car two tone.

That wouldnt really work, the talons break at the roof/glass lines , there is really no way to break up a color that high on an FC.

Bro, that looks hot. I'd go with a silver hood, but really, either way you can't lose.

Man I wish I could run photoshop like that. I have no idea what does what in it.

Can anyone color match the rest of this car to the bumper?

I too am a big fan of the black / colour contrast. I kept my S4 mouldings and black mirrors. But I also think that painting the car 2 tone might cheapen the look a bit. Personally I think that one of the first things you should do is tint the windows - it carries the Black/Silver theme a bit farther. Here's a pretty poor pic, but you get the idea: I'll look for a better pic...

I like the two tone look with the silver, but I'd do it more subtle. Substitute the stock toranado silver for the black. The Toranado is very close to the color of your rims, and would tie in really nicely IMHO. Besides, I"d hate somone to mistake me for a Raders fanatic!
