two tone color change

I have the 92 stripped down ready for paint, gonna go with a two tone red/black paint job, a little nervous about how it is going to turn out not too many people doing it. but excited, will try to post some pics this weekend to get opinions, if anyone has a two tone paint scheme please post for ideas

Here is my car, I think it would look very nice on a convertible. Try to do something a bit different though, creativity sets everyone apart.

As soon as he said he wanted to see a 3rd gen in red and black...where else was my mind going to wander? Just so you know fordspanker, John and I are on the same Michigan F-body forum.

PM sent, John.

Re: two tone color change

Looks good, I have always had a thing for the two tone red & black. My Beretta back in college my Dad and I did. It wasn't the cherry red but I really liked the deeper red with metallic so when the sun hit it the color popped.
I am also in Michigan so let me know if any of you three guys on here get together ever. I just picked up my 3rd third gen, 86 IROC that I will be getting out in a month or so.
