Two Tone Xb's

I was at my local dealer today getting my oil changed. I saw that as of Feb 3rd you can get a port installed option of having your Xb's roof and spoiler painted a different color than the rest of the car......

Cooper cop-out. Still a handy little deal to fold into the financing. Do they paint the pillars too? If they did that would look good to me..

must be something they're just starting in your area - SE Toyota's offered that in the deep south (below NC I guess....) since last spring when the Hot Lava's came out. They look alright - I sported a black roof for a little while, but removed it... just never got used to it

With the right colors, a two tone Xb would look absolutely sick

I have so much Black stuff on my Black Cherry Pearl xB, it's like having a two tone...from the front grill, to the 3M tape on the edge of the doors, to the bumper bit, the wing on the back...Maybe I should do the top...

I wasn't sure about the idea of a two-toned xB until I saw this one complete:

That's Justin a.k.a. HAMYxB a.k.a. 2TONEDxB.

The Change my be the "port installed" portion. When I ordered mine last spring the two tone option was a dealer installed option. This may be a different program.

I saw one that looked fantastic. If I remember, I think it was the lava w/ a cream colored roof/hood, w/ a dark pinstrip seperating the two colors. Sick.

But for $2K that is ridiculous. You could get that done for 1/2 the price at a quality shop, right?
