If you want it to look like the concept pic you have to do black over silver.

Blue over champagne just looks weird.

yeah you are right, it doesn't look right to me either. Raiders colorway would look nice.

On one hand I want a oem two tone colorway, on the other hand I want to create a new one, but in a way that is looks oem

lots of different manufacturers offered two-tone configurations. Try a combination from another manufacturer.

Lexus/toyota being a major one, although a lot of theirs seem to be stolen from nissan.

The ONLY non-OEM 2tone I have seen that looked good is the light purple over OEM gray. And I believe someone has done it or has it in the works. I do plan on possibly trying the OEM lavender frost over OEM gray as I heard it was offered in japan but I have never seen any proof.

I have seen companies who make both fiberglass and carbon fiber replicas.
But I dont think these come with the mounting brackets- which shouldn't be hard to replicate though. They are held on with rivets.

Do you have any photos of s13 coupes in appealing non oem two tone colorways as you are talking about? I am curious to see them.

edit* : like what about some R31 Skyline oem tone tone color ways? They had some with dark up top, light on bottom
