Hehe. Essentially, the black was a cost effective debadging which I had wanted. Black is black is black. A can of clear and a can of black is an easy way to debadging without color matching.
I went to a world class body shop and it came up that black is the absolute easiest color to color match. Why? Because there is only one black. Hardest? The ones with a million variations. Aka silvers...
So the point here was to debadge cost effectively without compromising the design aesthetic. Imo, The clean look for this car will very hard. It doesn't lend itself like the clean dubs you see being done. There's hundreds of lines everywhere in these panels adding character subtley. The trick is to bring them out without ricing the hell out of it.
. I think two tone will be one of those strategies to pull it off. Once everything is smoked, it will remove a significant amount of the busy-ness of the many colors thatcomewith lights and allow the bigger shapes to stand out.
