Can't make up my mind!

RL Chilton

I guess we can't make a poll anymore, so help me make up my mind on this small detail. My car is due to come out of the paint shop in the next couple of weeks and I'm still on the fence about where to break the two-tone paint (black and red, see avatar). It's either right on the speedline (see 1st attached pic), or right underneath the trim that goes right below the speedline (2nd attached pic). I know 52's and later didn't have the break here at all and convertibles weren't two-toned, but irregardless the colors are set in stone and I just need to decide where to do the color change. So speak out and tell me your thoughts and help me make up my mind!

Myself I like it under the trim making it a nice clean look.

Chrome defines the line. Under the chrome.

Like the convertible is done, that is the look you have been touting since sharing your avitar. Focus on what brought you all the way here no sway in the home stretch!

I like the under the trim look.
It looks better than the color being broken by chrome strip!

I would reconsider the tu-tone but if you must, absolutely break it at the trim

I doubt that you need another opinion, but I am with the rest. By the way, you have inspired me to paint my 54 with the same tu-tone. Except black on the bottom and top and red on the center surfaces. I know this is not a true color pattern for 54, but the only place I am pushing the color is with the bottom front being black. besides, it makes the car look longer and lower. Cannot wait until we can see some photos of your painted car.... Keep it up!!!!

Ditto what Boothguy said

This is what I was thinking for my coupe. I do not have the knowledge/ability to photoshop so I took a photo of a white car off the web and played with a few magic markers. Not professional but you get the idea. I used this car because I could not find a white coupe side view? I know, I have too much time on my hands.

Well, it's unanimous. It will be broken at the trim. I informed the painter today. Thank you everyone for your input!

Brownie-
I think that will look just great!
