Default Photoshop masters?

I have an idea for how I may want to paint my car, but of course I'd like to see a better picture of it to make sure I like it. I would also like everyone's input or ideas. The car doesn't seem to have a obvious line for a two tone paint job, so I could start it lower on the car then my drawing or I could scrap this idea all together. I also had no luck finding any other two tone paint job pics, so if anyone knows of any please post. Thanks as always.


My skills end at Microsoft paint so here is my version. Mocking my work and ideas is OK!! That's why we are here.



I am thinking that the blue would be this R8 color (are these two R8's the same color?) and the silver would remain Sebring or possibly the silver on the panel of the R8 since they look so good togther.




To top it off I would get the blue soft top from Honda and eventually do a hardtop painted to match with all black interior.

I voted a solid color. I think that looks best on a s2. Or maybe just a different 2 tone mockup? Looks to pace car.

Never been a fan of 2 tone .

I'd pick a color that wasnt offered here.

Moonrock, Monte Carlo Blue.... Maybe Imola Orange..


And LOL @ the picture of a picture.

So your leaning towards an OEM color that wasn't offered in the states...

I must say that orange is nice...

Solid color. The only "two-tone" I would consider is a black hardtop.

After our day in the dirt, I must admit that your car would look very nice as a pearl white.

Yeah a heavily pearled white has always been on the possibility list, the two tone is looking dumb a this point. I think I'm going to mix up a batch of moon rock and spray a old hood to help me decide.

Moon rock contains three different pearls, a metallic balancer, and is quite high on my pricing chart so it must really pop in the sun.

I liked pearl white a lot until I painted my bike that color. It is so hard to keep clean.
