i am personally not a fan of orange so i honestly dont like it too much. the carbon fiber hood does go well with the orange suprisingly. the carbon fiber/black top half does look pretty good and helps the car stand out more. i say, if you like the way it looks then go for it. at least you'd be somewhat original. good luck

looks like a pumpkin

I think with the two tone the orange looks real good.

Looks like an orange Shamu.

Just paint a talon orange. They have a black top.

Would you STOP it? Your green looks just fine.

How about a plaid?

Yuck.

I really like the two tone theme, but I'm kinda partial. I'm a two time 1g Talon owner. I don't think I'd go with orange though. I've had some visually flashy cars (for my area) and the regular harassment from the cops got old. I think a two tone paint job would be really cool, individual, and from the provided picture tasteful I'd just 86 the orange. There's my two pennies.

i think it would look good. definatly make you stand out. hahaha. but i would paint the spoiler orange as well. it dosent really look good being black... IMO. but the 2 tone orange/black looks good.

With the orange a little darker, it would look sweet. I love the two tone with the black top. Good luck with it

... Maybe a sweet scottish taran

I'm just playing around with some colors seeing if anything catches my eye... gold instead of orange

 

[Raph]

Yup,paint it a little darker and u get that JAEGERMEISTER orange that u see on some Racecars here...

I really like the two-tone look. I've seen a few Talon's after conversion to an eclipse that kept the black top and it in my opinion looked better than having one solid color for the entire vehicle. Don't like the orange though

 

[Phat95Talon]

I like it

I love the black Talon tops. Unique, not just like all the Eclipse's. Deffinitly do the two tone.

 

[Libila]

Two tone is the way to go but I would think a different color. You should try photchopping it to be copper instead of orange, that might look cool. It would be really different.

 

[Blizz92tsi]

I think a gold and black two-tone paint job would look really good. I've seen it on an Altezza before and it looked bad ass! You could also have your wheels painted or powdercoated to match.

thats kinda funny you did that i had the same idea i have the two tone on my talon red and black and i put blackpowder coat 18's and was going to get a black fiberglass hood , and then paint the stock 3-piece spoiler black also to get that same look...i like it, maybe instaed of orange..the BMW navy would look pretty good with the black

Looks nice, if it actually was shiny like it is in the picture, which I suspect it won't. I'd paint the hood roof and rear same color as well though.

And you WILL get pulled over more often, only because you're easier to spot speeding or weaving in/out in traffic.

That original green looks kick-ass as it is.

Yeah I am starting to like the color more and more... pretty low key for cops. But then every once and a while I start thinking crazy again and think of show car paint jobs.. designed to get attention, but I guess in an everyday driver that may be unwanted attention

Jager + Rumplemintz (50/50) = screaming nazi.

Jager + Rumplemintz + rum151 (20/40/40) = liquid cocaine.
