Same colour all over looks more modern imo. If i had a pearl white over grey i would spay the bottom the same as the top, I cant really picture anything else that would look good tbh

I'm with pedrotski here, I think 2 tone is a pretty "aging" look. All white is nice and looks pretty decent, I am biased though, owning an all white myself.

LOL
Fair enough... then I would go with a similar light grey/silver tbh. Not much else a pearl white goes with i reckon.. too dark and it will make it look a bit panda-spec like an ae86 drift car or something.. violates the look of the two-tone 'luxury' style. Though you might be able to get away with a touch of colour in there if you match it with accents elsewhere?
Just needs to be pretty light to match the lightness of the upper half without looking out of place.

What was the the one that sold on here not that long ago with a fresh 2 tone that was a green/gold sort of colour? Had pretty aggressive eurolines on it from memory, that looked pretty decent for a 2 tone.

That photo was taken just before a storm hit, it is BC02 & BC03 house of kolor metallic in the sun you can see the metallic sparkle.
My original plan was to Candy blue over it but i was talked out of it as it would be too hard to match when it gets scrathed.
