      Need Help with Photoshop

      Tax return is on the way, and I am ready to paint the car. I was looking to do a dark gunmetal/silver but everyone keeps telling me i need to 2 tone it. So I turn to the Photoshop experts here. What do you think would look good. If I could get someone to do a quick color change that would be great.

      I really dont know what would look good. I was think dark gunmetal and silver, or maroon and dark silver. Not really sure if any combo would look good on the G-body.

      Here's a couple quick chops, it's really hard to try and get any colors and make it look halfway decent because of all the odd color variations on the body right now. If it had a gloss finish currently it'd be a little easier.






      If there's some other colors you want to see let me know and I can try making something up. I'm still learning some on photoshop so these aren't the best, but you're not going to get anything that great off that picture in the first place.

      I was thinking blue on top and black on bottom with a red strip? Or a gray strip.

      I kind of like the blue and black with silver/grey stripe. The car needs a GN chin spoiler and trunk spoiler. I'd also remove the molding that goes over the roof too. If you're wanting to keep the moulding for a sleeper look it should be painted a sleeper solid color or just basic light grey/dark grey two tone in my opinion.

      The molding will be removed. I like the blue and black too. Looks awesome actually. My only problem is I hate taking care of black paint. Its growing on me though.
      Also, Someone makes a 1 piece chin spoiler, I will be getting one.

      Thanks a bunch for the help.

      If you're talking about the fiberglass one for front mount intercoolers, a guy local to me makes them. They're extremely nice I believe Cotton was one of the first ones to have one.

      Where is local? And do you have contact info?

      Do this in a satin or flat tan and all the bezels black.

      Or just a plain satin black with the trim all gloss black. Something subtle.

      2-tones are already dated IMO.

      I hate to ask so much, but do you think I could see dark silver or black on the bottom with a dark red/wine top. You are giving me so many ideas. I am more confused than i was before.

      Thanks man,

      You ought to try a black on the bottom with a deep purple (royal purple) on the top. Black and purple go very well together!
