wats up wit that man, i'm havin body work done, and the paint is fading pretty bad, so i deserve a ban for wanting to make my car look like it did when it came from the factory, cuz its original color is the seafoam green with grey 2-tone. i dont really appreciate that

if you repaint it the original two-tone colors...thats fine. Your only trying to perserve the two-tone! The creator of this thread has obvioulsy had a repaint or at least had to paint all the aero/widebody stuff.

Dutchmalmiss · 05-17-2006, 01:18 AM

i think a two-tone painted convertible with a pignose bumper and lip would look SICK!

axiomatik · 05-17-2006, 07:02 AM

I think a pignose vert would look strange. two-tone silvia vert would be awesome.

*exitspeed* · 05-17-2006, 08:51 AM

This is a good thread. But I think the mods should delete anything off topic, like "What kind of JDM Rad wheels are those?" So it doesn't get too cluttered up in here and it stays focuced on the fresh TWO-TONES!

*Vatche* · 08-21-2006, 04:01 AM

im just bumping this thread to see more two tones posted!

TipStylez · 08-21-2006, 04:30 AM

I also know a guy that owns a seafoam 2tone, and i caught another blue 2tone on this one swervy back road during one of my drives. And thats it, never seen another 2tone in my life in the city of seattle.

*Vatche* · 08-21-2006, 05:24 AM

so howd u clean the car up, did u have it painted professionally or did u do some stuff yourself, and what type of fog lights are those.

Also your car looks like a fastback from the front haha i dont know why

TipStylez · 08-21-2006, 05:32 AM

I use to work for a repare shop, and my boss let me use his booth, and i did it with the help of him.

And the foglights are made by some company named RALLYE. Bright as fuck, and they work unlike them ricer ass piss yellow lights that causes more glare then vision imporvements.

Maby it looks like a fastback cause the angle + 4x4 ridehight? haha I could lower it with sportlines but i refuse to run stock shocks!!

BTW, im in the process of redoing the black pinstripe, how did you guys do it? Just paint over it or actualy used pinstripe?

^^^^ upload your images to a photo hosting site such as photobucket.com or imageshack.com, and then link the photos here using [img] tags

example:

[img]'the url of your picture goes here'[/img]

or you can just copy the url of your pic, then click on the little mountain icon, and paste the url in the popup dialog box.

theimportguy · 08-22-2006, 06:29 PM

HS13KLS · 08-22-2006, 09:28 PM

soreballz · 08-23-2006, 12:09 AM

Color of car: Creamy Yellow/Grey metallic
Build date: February, 1989
original transmission: Automatic
sunroof: Moonroof... I want a hardtop, dammit!
HUD:Yes, but it doesn't work. lol
wing: Nope.
State: Cali

History... bought the car back in January some some guy in Sherman Oaks for 1500 bucks. Little rust, paint needed some lovin', ran alright. Seemed good at the time, but it quickly started having problems. Overheating, burning oil, etc. Whatever.
Only mods as of right now are Espelir ASD springs and a relocated front plate.
Mods as of next week: Twin cam, 5 speed, R33 GTS rear end (vlsd), RSR springs with KYB AGX's, Zenki lip, Q45 front brakes, and a black interior. (Already have the parts, just waiting on a hoist).
In a couple months, I'll be fixing the rust, getting a new rear bumper (crappy exhaust fried it), and I'm gonna do my best to talk my buddy Rich (same guy that painted Yuri's car) into repainting it. lol...

Here's a couple pics:
When I got it:

How it sits now (nevermind the coolant stains on the bumper lol):

axiomatik · 08-24-2006, 07:29 AM
