Use a metallic black on the top half, and tint out everything you can. Go light tint on the front, so it doesn't look ghetto, but it'll give the impression of the car being a lot lower, and make it look like a chop top.

I'm gonna try and photoshop it for ya... Be back later.

I think that looks classy. You can use a BSP if you want sparkles. If I had white I would do the black (non-metallic) and do a pearl blue clear coat over the white. Sometimes I wish I bought white .(Oh well!)

well i guess black it is. i like the last pic there. i havent seen one like that from the back. i do like how it makes the back window look like one big piece that wraps around, i mean, if the tint matches like that one.

Could you make that one with a black hood since I have been leaning to do this but have a carbon fiber hood and dont know what it would look like.
