2002 Black WRX Wagon
a while back (long long time ago) i saw a pic on here of a protege 5 with a two tone paint job... it was black on the bottom and red on the top (cant remember exactly though). anyways, it always stuck in my mind as being one of the nicest color schemes i'd ever seen... trouble is i cant find it now. I believe the photo was from the rear and the car was on a track (though not 100% sure). i also think it was a photoshopped pic.

if anyone has anything even remotely close to this description can you post it up? the paint on my new car (the wrx) is bad, so i was thinking a red/black paintjob and am just looking for ideas. the rex is the same body style as the p5 so the idea could work out well... so help me out if you have it saved or something, or know where it is.

thanks!
 
i think the one you're talking about is based on this picture of a IS430:

There was a couple photoshops of that paint on a P5, but they've been delted.

Do a search for user 'bigwoofer'. Color scheme is yellow and black but it was done right and looks Awesome.
 
Black on the bottom and red on the top? Never seen that before...
 
thanks guys. that lexus is more along the lines of what I'm looking for. It is very close to the photoshop I saw.

Bigwoofer's car is nice, but I think the black paint should be brought down to line up with the natural line along the side of the car. The way it curves up in the back like that makes it sort of look like a matrix... there was a pic on his site that showed that really good but it was flash so I couldn't repost it here. If it were me I would line up the black paint to match the line I'm speaking about that is about 6 inches below the windows.

I am either going to get a custom paint job on the WRX or I might just do the Subaru WRC rally stars in red along the side... ideas?
