Saw one with the same teal as yours on top but with silver on the bottom, looked pretty good.

well just a suggestion but if you ever plan on showing your car at shows, make sure the jambs are painted.

i just went today to get a price for 2-tone on my hhr.

over $3k for the top half in blue and cut with a neon green pinstripe.

he said if i didn't want the jams painted he would knock $800 off the price.

from the same guy that did a complete colorchange, shaved everything, fitted the bodykit on my 99 Celica. he charged me $2k. the paintjob alone was a $5k paintjob.

I went to a local Maaco that I have known for years. I have seen their work on a daily basis, so I wouldn't say I trust every Maaco. I paid $400 for my type of two-tone.

I am rethinking the whole show thing. Recently a local group went to a show and that night one of the guys car got broken into and his AVIC navi got stolen, he thinks it had something to do with the show. I don't know if I want that kind of attention.
