Default Two tone paint

Hey guys, I have an 06 GT that is Tungsten gray. I see all of these cars and even trucks with racing stripes all over the place. I want something different but yet I don't want to go crazy with it. Has anyone seen or possibly own a car that is two tone? I'm thinking from the body line above the wheel wells up in metallic black. Any ideas would be great.

It would be helpful if you could Photoshop exactly what you want to do. I'm just not picturing it.

If you are talking about having the portion of the car above the beltline or a little below in gray, and the bottom portion of the side in black, then I don't think I would like it. I had a car like that. The only reason was that the model I wanted only came with the bottom portion in black.

A neighbor has a black car with the lower portion of the sides and the lower portion of the bumpers in gray. I don't like the looks.

CutterWolf has something creative and nice.

Don't rush into a change.

Thanks for the replies. I am thinking beltline up black and beltline down factory Tungsten gray. To seperate the two, maybe a thin stripe of a brighter color. Kind of like what Foose does.

I had a two tone Corvette years ago I loved the look. All depends on the car the line you design and the colors you choose. It can look great it can look awful.
