EDIT: Not posting a picture atm, as I don't have any cars with Pearlescent paint, or any money to paint one so (car is on sale so maybe...)

Baltoman · May 19, 2008

Andreas¹ · May 19, 2008

CarMadMike · May 19, 2008

Im probably wrong but alot I think andreas's is the only 2 tone one here, Theres cars with 2 colours, but the colours aint mixed

Yes, this TVR is painted on Two Tone (Pearlescent) Paint. Its that TVR Purple/Blue colour.

Ringo_60013 · May 19, 2008

mines two tone pearlescent. if you look close its blue and purple (blue can be seen under the bumper and grill)

hesonly5 · May 19, 2008

I don't think Speedtouch's counts, but I don't see why the C1 and stuff can't be included, it is technically two-tone.

///AMGedUP · May 20, 2008

how about you chose a theme that everyone can use, not just people with mods, or just rename it to "TVR cars only"

every week i expect a cool theme but i get disappointed every time

CarMadMike · May 20, 2008

Everyone can two-tone ///AMGedUP, its in the deluxe shop

///AMGedUP · May 20, 2008

ooops forgot about that :D well still, not my kinda theme coz those collors are a lil to flashy for me

Pearlescent paint is available to everybody, there is a deluxe paint shop unlocked with a G class race around the crater, here you can paint your cars with pearlescent paint.

And just for those who havn't unlocked that, certain cars can be bought with pearlescent paint, for example you can buy a stock red and black TVR Sagaris.

I've edited the rules to make them clearer, please change your pictures if they do not qualify, sorry for any inconveniece.

i know it may not look like it, but it's two toned. i don't like painting my cars the NFS two tone job. tell me if it's not allowed, and i'll take it down.

Speedtouch · May 20, 2008

Actually if you go by the rule two tone paint (I know its changed, will change my entry in a min) then mine and total's are the only ones that count. Two tone paint is different to Pealescent paint: it is two solid colours, not mixed. Get your facts right!

Devang_Gandhi · May 20, 2008

here's mine: Red base with orange shade.

Baltoman · May 20, 2008

Sorry guys for choosing this theme, Creativity wasent with me at the time, I asked Speed if I could change the theme but he didnt respond so I guess its a no, I dont really like two tone paint either just on some cars.

Sorry Balto, didn't want to change the theme because we had already had some correct entrants, so it's unfair to them to change it at that point. Hopefully everything has been cleared up now though.

Speedtouch · May 20, 2008

Right, I sold a car to pay for the paint job, then painted it back to black once I'd got the picture. It [was] red and black pearlescent.

Does my second entry qualify? I don't see anything wrong with it, but it's not listed on the first page.
