I LOVE 2gb two tone talons and i was wondering if there are any people on the forum that have any two tone eclipse's. Here are some pics of mine, I am thinking about painting the hood and black but i dont want it to look like a fake CF hoof. I just think black hoods can look mean.

I love the purplish burgundy color with the tan interior, nice combo.
Me personally, I wouldnt paint the hood black. IMO i think it will make it look cheap, or like you wrecked the car and put on a hood of a black parts car.
If your really lookin towards a black hood, I would get a carbon one. That way it will look like you intended it to be black.

I agree but you never know sometimes it does like nice. Just photoshop a good one and see how it looks. IMO I think it looks better on lighter colored cars. (silver, white, red etc.)

BTW your rims look really clean with the purple. Nice work.
 
i was thinking about doing this as well, i have a purchase for a black hood lined up but im still unsure about getting it
 
I guess technically I have a two tone eclipse... converted my talon to an eclipse so I have the black roof and talon spoiler plus dark tinted windows, but eclipse everything else.
 
I wouldn't know if you would call this a two tone but here is a pic of mine with black sideskirts and rims.

I think two tone paint jobs are hit and miss. You really need to find the proper lines on the car to make a two tone paint job look good!

I had a CF hood on my old Focus with a Silver Paint job and I always liked that combination, but that works on almost any silver car!

If you go with the two tone, I would mask out a couple of different lines around the car to see which lines would look the best with the cars natural curves.

Good Luck!
 
Thats a two tone paint job? Looks exactly like my car my car also has the tan inside and the paint color is called black cherry/ dark cherry. :|:nono::nono:

He isnt saying his is two-tone. He is asking if it would look good with a black hood on his car to make it two-tone.
 
I think lighter colored cars look good with a two tone. Just the roof colored black, a talon spoiler really sets it, then a CF hood to finish the look.

not really feeling the black sideskirts right now, but if it was lowered it would look a lot better.
 
Nice color (Barcelona red pearl), not sure about the black hood, but I thought about a black stripe on the bottom 1" of the front bumper. And maybe the trim above the radiator painted black too (like you have done here), but the photoshopped image I did on mine didn't come out well. So let's try this.

This might give you an idea, although you might want flat black. No sure.
