Multi Tone Hate.....Who's with me?
Apparently in the past few years it has become the "in" thing to take a muscle car an paint it two or more colors, from $#!tty backwoods builders to the masters of the game, everyone is in on the trend.
Am I the only one who loathes this "style" and is reay for it to die off, just like the pastel colors of the eighties and nineties did, and those god forsaken lazer and splash style stripes that everyone had to have?
Don't get me wrong, there are some cars, albeit a very few, that can pull off a two tone or multi tone paint job, take tri 5 chevys for example, those cars wear it well.
I blame Chip Foose for this, as amazing as his work is, why does he have to paint every thing 2 or 3 or 5 colors?! IMHO he's the leader or one of the most visible in the "restification" world, he has the power to stop it! lol
Whatever happened to the subtle black car that just looks evil? Why does everything have to scream "Look at me"? Have people really dumbed down so much that this is the only way for a car to be cool? I just don't get it.....
I'm also ready for the blatant pro-touring style to die off, I understand wanting a comfortable, reliable old car that handles well....but why do you have to reinvent the wheel? Why do you want a '70 Challenger just to build it into something that looks nothing like a '70 Challenger???? (You know the one, Oct. '08 MCG)
