    con⋅trast –noun: opposition or juxtaposition of different forms, lines, or colors in a work of art to intensify each element's properties and produce a more dynamic expressiveness.

    So therefore good sir, contrast can be "black on black" as in gloss black on flat black, or in the case of my VX, the gloss black compared to the almost black cladding. It does need to be "light and dark" as you may be thinking, although, that is likewise considered "contrast".

    Very true! I always try to make my Mods look like they could have came that way from the factory. I think I’m the only one on the forum with a $1500 sound system attached to an OEM head unit.

    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.
