I've actually only seen another two tone like mine in this thread, no where else. I want to paint it the other two tone, but I may have to preserve this car, the paint is in pretty good condition and the body is dent/ding/rust free.

shane_lxi · 06-26-2008, 10:36 PM

Anybody have pics of the champagne with a two tone? I know it didnt come factory, but maybe someone out there has done it.

C. Senor · 06-26-2008, 11:31 PM

i think sr20detman's coupe was champagne with dark brown bottom...i think!....i havnt seen that car in a while though. search him up and see if he has pics of his car.

singlecamslam · 08-01-2008, 11:55 AM

can anyone tell me what the color code of the bottom of the two tone is? Like that grayish or whatever. Its exactly like Initial Drifters coupe color.

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-01-2008, 12:28 PM

Educate yourself.

lost240soul · 08-01-2008, 12:39 PM

Damn you mat, it's my car now. haha!

Since I've owned it I've done alot more including those wheels and suspension you see in the pictures MTalon posted.

Here's more.

My sig on other forums

Taken with other cameras

I has Aeroz now.

I've been fighting it for a while now, but I think I will be keeping the two-tone.

Here it is after photoshop... haha

I'm even diggin' the idea of this 2-tone and a half... but its still just an idea.

If anyone cares, here's the link to the build thread on another forum.
Project: Banana Cannon - ShitisTight.com

I also have action shots!

s13poop · 08-20-2008, 05:47 PM

please do not paint the top

it would look perfect with just the aero painted

don't ruin the cars simplicity

jamesnater · 08-21-2008, 02:15 PM

I probably won't end up doing that at first. But it reminds me of the famous Drift Tengoku JZX90 (pink/white) 2 tone for some reason, and I LOVE that car.

At first I hated this 2 tone and was going to paint it within the first few weeks that I bought it from MTalon. But a year has past and it's REALLY grown on me. I havn't seen another 2-tone in creamy yellow. Since I'm the only S13 drivin' around daily with this color, everyone knows its me when I pass by another S-Chassis. haha.

soreballz · 08-31-2008, 11:28 PM

Ugh, now I have to do something extreme to set my creamy-yellow coupe apart from the rest.

Fuck.

s13dan · 08-31-2008, 11:46 PM

i love the yellow two tones! I have seen a few hatches, were any made from the factory with 2 tone?I saw a yellow and greay hatch in real life once and it appeared to be OEM, and i know what to look for.

gilby7887 · 09-01-2008, 01:37 PM

sorry had to post again had the wrong img tag.
