two-tone paint scheme FTW. It seems everyone is afraid of 2 tone, but if doen the right way it could look killer. my next daily driver may be 2 tone

Yeah I want to know what the nose stripes look like. I've though of doing that to my 88. I would definatly go for the vinyl and pull it off if ya dont like it.
