Way too much going on. I prefer this body style with this paint setup...

I love custom, but i think the goal with any two tone job is to follow the body lines.. this one clashes very hard on the front end. plus the platinum comes from the factory two toned with silver parts so this two tone on a two tone is too much.. i two toned my truck matte black on black, using the body lines as my guide

This is the first custom paint job I really like! I live matte black, and it looks really good on the truck!!

That's gross. Gross. Gross. Looks like a 90's throwback...10th gens, even though I don't like the look of them at all, can pull off a two tone paint job much better. Why? Because they were designed in the 90's. *gasp* INCEPTION!!
