Here is my 2-tone, if you decide to go a more "traditional" route.

I wouldn't do either... but I do like the front end of the first car. The break on the doors kill it for me though. I'm hoping a hood like that fits on my 07 when I get it. Do what you want though, paint is an expression of your taste. It says something about yourself and your personality. If I chose to repaint my car, about the only color I'd consider is a blood red. Redline is just to happy for me. I like my cars to look deadly.

I never gt tired of looking at that paint job. That is the ONLY way a 350Z should be done two tone. Very nice.

man I know how you feel. I'm planning on getting the Do-Luck widebody and I'm interested on a 2-tone paintjob also. But since my imagination sucks, I can't think of a unique design. I want a lamborghini orange to begin with but I want to play around with it and have a 2-tone going on

Yo whats up Frank,

I'd say pic #2....if you do it like pic #2, a Carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber rear hatch with lexan glass will look nice...and lighten it up a bit.

That car is totaled :] Seen it on copart about a month ago, had massive front end, rear end damage, I am 100% sure it was the same Z, so damn ugly I still can't forget it (would post some pictures if I find any) Possibly the guy who owned it, was as good in driving, as he was in body styling

And another totaled two-tone Z (one of few two-tone 03s I've seen on copart recently):



IMHO the only two-tone Z I really liked was on SEMA - the orange, black top one

whats up with everyone's fascination with a green colored 350z? i've been hearing that a lot lately. "i wish nissan made a dark green Z like the 300zx" etc, etc...

just curious why the sudden demand
