1993 190E 2.6
Paint

Im getting my white 190 painted. I was thinking of doing the rear view mirrors black, along with the entire hood, and then entire grill. Hood star also.

Is that going to looks rice/horrible? In my head it looks nice. Im painting it all white, minus, bumpers, door handles, things that are currently black now.

Then I have 30 days before I'll bring it back in to do the hood. Has anyone else done this or have pictures of some one who has.

Ive seen the newer ones done this way and it looks really clean. Just dont know if the 190 has the look for two tone.


Thanks for any tips and advice

Photoshop it. Or give me a good big picture of your car and I'll have it done for you.

if anything, find another decent hood, then get your car painted white, and the other hood black. if by anychance you don't like it you always have the stock hood that matches the car.

btw, does anyone make a carbon fiber hood for 190??

There is a guy making them over on 190rev right now, hefty waiting list but he is getting better equipment to speed up the process.
