Photos of silver/black TRs please...

Front, back, sides...whatever...but I'd like pictures of a two toned black and silver GN for reference...I'm planning on painting mine like that.

I think you're after the WH1 Designer series paint? Here's some pics of mine...fair warning, these were taken almost 4 years ago, using old crappy digital cams & scanners!

Cool pics so far...thanks. No, I'm not looking for WH1, I'm looking for people that have painted a completely silver on bottom and black on top (or reverse) scheme on their TR. I've seen a picture once, can't find it now.

Oh, I like the silver and black cars too! There is a GN clone racing near me that painted his car silver and black and it looks killer! I plan on buying a Harley truck soon, and silver and black two tone is an option. If I buy that I HAVE to paint my GN to match.

If you check the cars for sale classifieds and do a search for baer brakes you'll find another killer silver and black car for sale.

Mine's blue and silver but the blue's pretty dark. I kinda like dark other colors, but nothing beats BLACK

car show, hood up

ADAM

I went silver on the sides 'cause I drive it on a daily basis and silver would hide any door dings a whole lot better than black.

Yeah, I've been thinking of that as well. I don't want to go fiberglass, so the bumpers wont look smooth like the GMHTP car...that's a factor against the silver bottom at this point. Your bumper looks pretty good.

I will have to say there are alot of awsome TB's out there. But my personal fav. is HYBRIDT's that car is unreal I love it and I have said it a million times.

That car gave me the idea to try to paint my GN Iroc blue or purple top, black bottom with a silver stripe about 3"-4"'s wide, that will have black or red 1/8 pin stripes in it. The silver will be where the top and bottom colors come together.
