Photochop request

[halxi]

Well one of my uncles restores old army jeeps and such and he came over last night while i was working on my CAI, and we kind of started BS'ing about different engine mods, painting some things, cleaning up the engine bay, and painting the car.

Well by the end of the night it became serious talk, he has ALL the tools to do a complete paintjob for under $100, i just have to do most of the labor with his guidence.

After some talk, i decided on either a charcoal gray color, or 2 tone blood red and black lower. So heres my request (which im sure you guys have had thousands of), would someone be able to photochop me a pic with a blood red color from the trim up, and black from the trim down?

Mr. Eff took some really good pictures that would be fairly easy to photoshop, along with a couple angle pics.

Heres the links:

Here is my chop. It's pretty rough but gets the job done none the less. Changed the color, lowered it, and put on a tint job. Hope you like.

I'm not big into the panda, but I do like the mint green w/ darker green bottom.

[Busted_Blue]

amazon green!

[frantik]

post a pic of the color :)

[88accordhb]

Thanks for the chops, im also thinking maybe the stock accord blue (like busted's car) with a black lower section.

Heres the Amazon Green:

Its a metallic so i wont be able to get the exact thing, but definatly a color close if i choose to go that route.

Heres a stock honda blue:

Looks alright i guess

Only thing that i need to keep in mind, is my interior will still be maroon. So something that will match is a must.

that one with the mint green looks really good i likey:)

[frantik]

thanks dudes :D i like the mint green one the best myself... though a blue shade of that same reflectiveness would also look dope (which is simalar to busted blues i think if i ever saw a pic of his car in the day time hehe)

he's an attempt at the amazon green, though it's hard to reproduce multicoat colors as accurately

based off of this car's color: http://www.collegehillshonda.com/ridgeline/wallpaper/amazon1024.jpg

it looks a little too yellow but it's hard to tell exactly how the suv would look in similar lighting

[b8er]

that colour thats on the ridge line is hot man, i definatly hit that, with a good clear coat and a polish, id be a one of a kinda 3gee

[frantik]

tried again using the paint chip instead of just eyeballing it.. a little closer but it's still hard to match exactly

[Busted_Blue]

That is definitely a hot color. I can tell you when I saw that ridgeline in person at work, I was thought "Damn, someone should put that on another Honda."


here is a pic of my car in the daytime.

if you're interior will still be the same maroon color, then the blood red and black would be best. it would have a better flow from outside in, and there is still that little bit of contrast between the two. for me, having the paint and the interior showing a little contrast is good. the spirit of the accord cries out for balance and symmetry of its respective colors. one must allow the accord to be what it wants to be.

this is fun!

I say leave it grey, but if you really want to change it. Sei green is not bad

its not my car lol, my car is maroon... notice in the first post i said "Mr. Eff took some pics..." crediting him for the pictures lol, if i had his car, i sure as hell wouldnt be painting it, kuz that color kicks ass.

i love that dark blue, if i could find a parts car with a good tan interior for cheap, i would paint it like that.

I think im most likely going with the red/black, i think it will have the best overall look. Or maybe gray to black in the bottom right.
