Love it or hate it?
So the other day I was noticing that the C7.R's are two-tone. Yellow top with a black bottom from the lower crease on down that wraps around the whole car. Thought I'd play around in Photoshop and see what I could do with my GS. The red is a little bright (hard to get the right shade), but generally speaking, what do you think? Like? Dislike? Those panels are flat enough that I could probably do a vinyl wrap on my own to get the effect.

I don't hate it, but not something I would do to mine.

Not quite my cup of tea, but close. I do think you show creative skill.
If I saw this at a Corvette show, I'd definitely stop and take a closer look.
Don't stop imagining!!

Frankly, I'd go for flames if it were me, but I like the combination. I don't get why Chevy doesn't use obvious separation lines to do two-tones anyway. I mean, someone had the idea that purple and yellow went together a few years ago, didn't they?
Do it. It's your car, not a voting bloc.

At first glance I liked it but after looking at it for awhile and picturing the stock look I would pass on the two tone paint scheme.

It's different and I found it interesting. I don't hate it, but it's not something I would consider doing. In the end, it's your car and your choice. Maybe you could have the red part wrapped on so that if you changed your mind down the road you could simply remove it and go back to stock. Let us know what you eventually decide.

It may just be that color but for me & that doesn't do nothing for the car. If anything it has pulled away from the looks of the vette. But your car if the owner like it that is all that matters.. Robert
