mx-3s dont look good two toned imo, it just doesn't flow with the body.

I never liked 2 tone jobs on the mx-3 until I saw stereoking15's car...

you need to bring the paint to a point on the fender to meet up with the hood and paint the mirrors...

Agreed, though I do have to say that two tone is not appealing to me.
