...... OKAY, so there's one exception.

But technically, I was speaking of cars that come from the factory. That Lexus OBVIOUSLY didn't come like that from the factory.

On the contrary, Lexus/Toyota have been doing two tone paint for YEARS from the factory.

That Lexus is actually a one off cutom built by Millen motorsports, it is the 'IS430' which is an is300 but the 430's v8 motor.

You don't say? Hmm I was wondering why they called it that on the "rides" special.

Ever since I saw a blue honda civic with white sideskirts/front lip/back lip this kinda thing has been reserved for ricers. If you did Paint it like the lexus...with body and sideskirts together in a scheme....it might look good...

But that Contour above just looks like he was too lazy to paint it..or didnt have enough money...

I could be driving around right now with a bright white mirko...but yet its in my closet waiting until I can paint it to match...

Whenever I see a car with unpainted body kits or parts, it always makes me think that they cant afford to have them painted. Thats exactly what I thought when I saw the pic of the contour with the black mirko/sideskirts. Its one thing to have a custom 2-tone paint job and another to have an unpainted body kit. Not to put down the owner of that car, its just the way I see it.

That was Mikey Boy's car, and it was a photoshop(Thank God!).. And I agree, please don't leave the Mirko black, or try and do some 2 tone paint to make it work.. It'll definitely look cheap..
