Wow! OK being helpful, maybe a pinstripe in between the colors could help a little.

Yeah, maybe a multi-stripe with green/silver alternating 2 or three times to join/blend the colors together.

I guess the good news is you only have to paint half the car to make it look right. I'd go all silver I guess.

I seen a caprice that looks just like that in Vallejo the other day. All you need is the 26's and youll be set. Just kidding man. Whatever floats your boat, but I dont think you will find too many guys that appreciate two tones on this forum.

shouldn't truth in advertising include the fact that you're only 14 yrs old and
all this "I finally painted my car..." stuff leave open the question how much
authority you actually had in doing this? did mom/dad really make the
decision here?

i dont think anyone stole it, i think they took it to pasture to put it out of its misery

i could see how that color scheme couldd work if there was a wavy thing to it, more gray in front, more blue in the back.i dono, it looks like one of those bowl haircuts.hey, but at least u tried

not trying to insult anyone. you said you were 14 yrs. so legally you cant
own the car, nor can you enter into service agreements. so i'm simply asking
you whether you can legally make the decisions you've declared in your posts.

Wish I could make a postive remark regarding your two-tone paint, but I just can't do it. It doesn't look like a paint scheme that belongs on a classy Mercedes-Benz. Of course it's a repaint, but this color scheme screams 'REPAINT'. Sorry...
