I am planning on painting my car a dark blue with black carbon fiber tailights and wing.

My interior is black w/beige and I wondered if I should paint it all black inside with small accents of blue?What looks good with dark blue and carbon fiber?

BTW my gauges(dash,tach) will most likely be the blue carbon fiber gauges from Ractive.

Can someone please photoshop this?I will most likely have the Blitz Battle body kit (cheap).

If you are going to do the interior i would go with a dark blue and black.

 

[Budget Tuner]

I was thinking the same thing.

The seats though?Black or Blue?

 

[wastefuldreamer]

I like the interiors all black. That would look the best to me.

 

[Budget Tuner]

I like all black too but I want to add just a drop of blue, but where?

 

[wastefuldreamer]

under your seats or in the glove box. Or maybe on the radio

have the whole interior black, carpet and all, and just throw in blue matts, for a litle touch of blue

I am going to get my car repainted here pretty soon.
I was wondering what colors everyone would suggest.
Thought about leaving it red, or maybe a different shade of red. But not really sure. I have seen alot of Nice black eclipses and other colors such as blue, gunmetal etc....

What do you guys think? Leave it red or go with a different color?
If you have any color that you like post a picture of it so i can see.

Thanks


Also... If someone has photoshop and has the time i wouldnt mind seeing my car the same color as my wheels...

i personally love the NSX "spa" yellow but not everyone around this board is fond of it... Deep blue is another nice color, either of these 2 would go well with your gunmetal rims and tinted corners.

Photoshop comin' right up.

 

[pozz24gs]

im about to do the same thing, get my car painted, cuz i just put my kit on. i thought about leaving it red, but ive decided to add some metallic flakes. have to see what it looks like first

 

[Chuckt]

haha, just to make sure, you guys are all using REGISTERED lisenced versions of ps right....

 

[Malefic DSM]

I personally like the red, not to many of them here. But there isnt many other blues eather. So its up to you.

 

[Chuckt]

[Wikkedson]

Wow, photoshop is great. I need to buy a copy.
I like the blue and the yellow.
Any way to get it to come out a dark silver, gumetalish color?

 

[blaster1812]

I like the blue

 

[v8 hunter]

Hey man the color looks good, keep it red, spend that money on turbo upgrade, if it aint chipped up or scratched why bother it looks good the color it is

 

[92LaserAWDTurbo]

Someone please tell me how to do that on Photoshop?! I haven't a clue! ... that's amazing work.

 

[greyforestgst]

why the hell are you painting that? your paint looks flawless, and its a gorgeous color already.

if you must, go with a darker shade of red.

According to Henry Ford there are only two colors to a car:

Black and ugly.

 

[cait sith]

Are you doing the engine bay? The door jams? The entire inside of the car after removing everything (Trunk area, passenger area, etc)? Because when you remove anything from the interior, it'll show right up.

ok im trying to see those Angelfire pics but it isn't working. I wanna see cuz im about to paint mine soon too. Anybody know a paint code for a really bright red? My car already has a pretty bright red to it, but i just watched dumb and dumber and there's a lambourgini on there with a bright red paint job that is kick a$$ and so i was wondering if anyone knew another car besides a lambourgini with a bright red like that
