Two tone C7 Stingray
With some two tone Corvettes in the past, how do you think the new C7 looks with a two tone paint or maybe a lower two tone wrap at the bottom?...
Just messing around with P'Shop. Still got a little time to think about mods before the cars start dropping.

To me the only 2 toned themes that really worked were on the solid axles with the coves painted to contrast the body color from 56 to 61.

It will look great if you like two tone paint.
I really like this one - especially on the track with a 3 on the side

It looks like it belongs in the 1970's/early 80's.

I tried it, but I can't find good shapes.

I like the idea of 2 Tone both on the Exterior and on the Interior including the seats. But, as of late, whatever I like just does not seem to happen ...

I'd lose the red pinstripe 'tho - especially where it runs through the rear side marker light.

And you can splash on your English Leather aftershave, don your polyester bell bottoms, throw some Kung Fo Fighting on the 8-track, pick up your girlfriend sporting her Dorthy Hamil haircut, mood ring and platform shoes and head off to your buddy's Fondue party. Rocky Horror Picture Show is on tonight . . .

Slap some Indy Pace Car decals on it and you're done.

That looks hideous and outdated? Why mess up the beautiful lines with cheesy schemes like this? Let's put some wire wheels and a fake convertible top cover on it too.
I guess some just can't let go of the past.
