    I also thought it looks a bit like a Talon from the side with the hardtop, but I still think the 2-tone look really sets the car off. The black across the top of the car would give it a Foose-ish look, and I can't argue with anything that is Foosed. IMO, that guy has the best eye out there....

    The comment about a stripe to separate the black/yellow is a good idea too. Silver or whatever - what would Foose do?!?!

    It's a sweet ride either way though. Super clean and very tastefully done!! But too nice to drive in any type of bad weather if you ask me...

    Paul, instead of black have you Photoshopped something like a steel gray (tungstun) or a mineral gray? I'm personally having a hard time picturing it (no pun intended). Probably would look like crap :p, but if you don't go all yellow (if you had a hardtop the top would be yellow) or yellow/black (copies the car with the ragtop) what other options do you have? Yellow with Shelby stripes?

    A shame you can't use temporary "paint" on the real thing.

    hartop vert is an awesome idea, ive never seen a top like that before...........i actually like the entire thing yellow, it will give it two completely different looks....if you paint it solid it will really resemble a coupe
