Pettit, if you want to achieve a Panda paint (two-tone), be sure the charcoal bottom compliments the the top color. If you are going for contrasts in the other direction, your photoshop works. Given any thought to making a true Panda by powdercoating the wheels to the bottom's chosen color?

Not sure exactly what you're trying to say. That picture is the paint scheme I'm going for, Sil front and all. I haven't decided on wheels, but I do know that they won't match the charcoal bottom. I'm thinking something polished.

Personally, I would either go one color or go lighter on the charcoal. Pastel colors tend to work well with rounded cars, which your car's aero compliments. The charcoal you selected contrasts too much with the pastel.

It fits like that because of the aftermarket wide fenders and because I don't run a front bumper support.

You should, when those zipties snap and you drive over your front bumper you're going to hate yourself for it.

Toyota 040 is what is on one of the Lovely Idol FC's but it has white pearl in the paint and white and blue pearl in the clear so its all retarded

kind of a bit dated pic, but whatever you get the idea

I plan to.. I'm actually ditching the wide front fenders and going back to OEM fenders and putting the front bumper support and retainer so I can lower the car more.
