If I had the money...
WOW! The top one with black looks good. Thanks for the suggestion. Can u do it again but make the black a little lighter - carcoal maybe.

I was actually thinking "What would Chip Foose do?"

More of a Charcoal color:

That's nice - maybe one shade darker?

ive had that same idea for a while now, but minus the pinstripe.

imo the stripe looks really good.

I also said to myself, what would chip foose do? I have sent over 20 e-mails to chip foose over a period of 6 months to see if I could hire him and all I got was auto reply. I was in Hunington Beach about 3 months ago and offered by e-mail to come over but again got auto reply. I asked for only please 15 minutes of his time since he is so busy but no response.

The light charcoal is too close to the silverstone. It would almost look like a bad paint match if not for the pinstripe.

The all red two-tone is horrible.

I think the silver is pretty hard to two-tone, and I don't think the S2000 is well suited to the look. Good luck with it though. I would be interested to see how it turns out.

Yes the red does not work, but I think the carcoal looks very good.
