Thanks for the compliments!

Lucretia, I've always thought a taupe / light almond two-tone would look great!
Taupe and lt. almond would look great! I was also thinking about black and lt. almond or is the lt. almond too light for that? Any other colour suggestions? I really think I'm going to have to look into a paint job.
Black and almond seems to work pretty well

At least well enough for DC to offer it!

I saw that Black/Almond Two Tone today, it looks sharp and blends in together well.

Did they make the two tones before.

There is a PT I see all the time parked outside this persons house in my area.

Its black top with the darkest sand looking color avaliable. The funny things is that it was there way before I bought mine. [:I]

Unless he works at chrysler or had it custome painted like that. [:I]

More Likely He got them Customed Painted.

Sometime this dealer does this kind of job to there 02's thru 04's pt.

The Two Tones werent introduced until now, its new for 2005 PT Sedans Models.

Well, I guess if that colour combination is good enough for DC, it's good enough for me I was wondering what a cranberry/almond two-tone would look like?

Any ideas on the cost of this kind of paint job?

I tried doing a photoshop of a Cran n Almond

(Before I Post The Pics.. of whomever cruiser this is, I was just borrowing the images.. Found em on Google..)

Anyway heres my attempt of the photoshop work I did..

It may not look like almond but could be almost close to almond.. more likely taupe.

2nd Choice is Black N Cranberry.

This could be the new dawn of two-tone paint jobs. I can't think of a car that looks better.

I have a black over red 04 GT (factory paint). Special ordered and got it on March 26th, 04. Great car and a great color. Two tone paint cost an extra $700+- plus the red cost an extra $225 but I think it was worth it. There would be a lot more two tones if the dealers would order them for their lots.

I'd have to agree with white, seems that very few dealers are ordering two/tones. There were 2 red/blacks at the dealer in Asheboro that I got mine from, and I was at a dealer in Wilmington this weekend that had 3 silver/blacks. And I heard of a blue/black at a dealer in Charlotte. These seem to be the only ones anyones has seen in North Carolina....

My and I liked the picture of the 2003 DreamCruiser(Dark blue/bright silver, but appears black) so much that we painted the top of her her bright silver 2001 LE black from the beltline up with a 1'8" red pinstripe to break the colors. It looks great.([ihttp://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/4/web/652000-652999/652682_3_thumb.jpghttp://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/4/web/652000-
