Two tone

[Murdered_LS8]

So, after looking at my car and trying to figure out how to fix it, apart from clear coating it, I've decided I'm going to use vinyl and two tone my LS. Thinking about a dark graphite or something not entirely noticeable unless you are looking for it. Something subtle...

I'm going to say this and I don't mean to dissuade you or offend, but I've NEVER seen a two tone car I liked. Never.

anythings possible, it will be almost impossible to make it unnoticeable though...

Audi two tone alcantara interior ftw!

Inside two tones are nice, but not outside.

Oh wait...haha...nvm cant read. Two tone exterior, no good. Much less on an LS.

Most i would do on an LS as far as two colors is gloss black roof.

Agreed. I even like the black mirrors to go along with it.

Some retro TBird owners are converting to different color hardtops. (I'm sticking with black/black on my retro.) A few are converting to vinyl.
As for the word NEVER, some cars that I've owned (1989 Lincoln TC and 72 Ford LTD) looked great wth contrasting vinyl tops.

Back in 1964, a friend of mine bought a 1964 Impala SS, maroon with a black painted, not vinyl, top.

We never saw a similar combo on an SS of any color.

In 2003, I saw a Merc Marauder with a black vinyl half top on a Merc dealer showroom floor.

Not very attractive.

A lot depends on the car.

Check out BrokeLS, he had the best looking two tone LS I've ever seen.

Its gonna be a complimentary color, or a neutral color since I'm not much into flashy, and it is the Murdered LS,

Its gonna be a complimentary color, or a neutral color ...,

What about GM and their run on 80's style contrasting colors? (c'mon it would really pop with a 'groundFX' decal on the windshield)

......Yeah, probably not a look for the LS

Well out of the two front lips you can get for the LS, I was gonna get the smaller one, and with the two tone, I was gonna plastidip the lip so it would be reminiscent of the Mach 1 mustang's
