I was thinking a Black Firebird with a thirdgen.org red firebird on the hood. It would be filled in red like what the Batman Beyond bat logo looks like.
The 2-Tone, eh, im not sure, it was something different and not many Firebirds around my town have 2-tone color schemes.

My favorite color is Blue. I love the way blue looks against silver. So my favorite color combination is medium bright blue over silver ground effects. For some reason I don't like this combination on any car other than a Trans Am.

Another thing im curious about is the plastic front and rear clip. Is there a special way I paint those? The reason I ask is cause I hear that the paint will crack once I spray paint them. Is this true?

I like the blue/silver combo on your car Needforspeed because you have the GTA wheels too. Your Camaro is the only other car I have ever seen with that combo that wasn't a TA or Formula.

Glossy black, acrtic white, metallic blue, silver, they all look good. There's also a sort of metallic orange-copper that I've seen on this board that looks really good. I wouldn't go 2tone if I were you though. Even though I love my Blue w/ Silver GFX.

Two-Tone is cool, you just have to get the color combo's right.
Red over silver is a good look. Red over gold would be different.
Black over silver is mean looking, and you can't go wrong with the classic 'Bandit' black over gold.
White looks best over blues or medium grays, but you can do some reds, too
Of the options on the poll, i'd pick one of the solid color schemes.
Bumpers: There's supposed to be a flex agent they put in the paint to keep it from getting spiderwebs on plastic bumpers.

I would love to see an orange thirdgen, and I don't mean that faded red that looks kind of orange. I mean a bright orange or a burnt orange. So my vote is other with ORANGE. Bright colors look great with black trim.
