Why not both like a Turbo?? I think it would look pretty sweet with the green up to the body line halfway up the doors and then pearl white on top. White leather seats, door trims, consol and dash with green carpet.

Like this but obviously a siggy

There is a good painter on Ponton St, I will find out the name if your interested?

i drove past a brand new XR8 ute with that paint job and it looked pretty sick i think i'd go more blue though :)

Good idea, but it will be won or lost in the detail - Determining the line where the two-tone paint changes to the next colour is tricky. Too low down and it'll look like an afterthought; too high up and it'll look like a taxicab.

If it were me I'd pick a really classy colour and do a really good job of applying it to perfectly set off all those crisp panel edges. (H)

Or if you want more of a standout then go a flat colour with some techno style graphics. :P

I think it would look sweet with a silver colour seperator line about an inch thick, just to set it off the silver line could have a ultra thin pin stripe around the outside of it, that swaps colour, silver on the green lower and green on the white upper.
