This has been done, with the top black and bottom grey. If you would like to see pics of it, check out ronjonwheels.com and look under "events" for the RJSD Annual Meet 2007.

Here's a link to one of the pics:

Hmm....don't you think you would be using a lot of money on it? Unless you definitely need a repaint of the hood or something, I would not recommend it.

I think that type of sh*t downgrades the whole luxury thing. IMO, Rims - OK, Body kit - Maybe, sound system - as long as its not overdone. Neon lights, stickers, painting odd colors, etc - too Honda-ish.

Has everyone forgotten about this two-tone TL?

If you're planning on doing something like this one, I'd say go for it!

Never liked the two tone cars and having a WDP TL thought the black roof would be ridiculous.
Having said that, just purchased a Kia Optima Turbo, snow white pearl with a black roof.............
Having changed my mind, I'm certainly more open to the two tone, in moderation.
