i like black and blue the best, but it looks funny in the back. the front looks good, but i think the two-tone in the back needs some redesign.

i think it would look better if the black and blue one had the lines where they are on the second pics paint job. and then in the back instead of doing the whole trunk, continue the line that was on the rest of the car so the trunk lid is also 2-tone
