Photoshop Help? Continental Orange Fuchs on a Petrol Blue 911?

[Ferrariguyma]

Can one of the expert PhotoShoppers turn these black centered fuchs to Continental Orange? I was wondering how the car would look with orange centers and polished lips.

Thanks!

i know this isn't any help, but the car is beautiful as is. i would think orange would look more appropriate on a track car..just my opinion. i'll be curious to see this look, but i'm not expecting it to look better than it does right now.

platinum maybe but not orange, not on that car.

Sorry I don't really know the exact orange you are looking for so I winged it. Do youhave an example of this orange? Also, the fuchs' are too dark in the other pictures to change.

I actually don't mind it but I think it would require an orange accent somewhere on the car. Orange door text a la carrera or similar?

nix,

Next time, could you make it smaller I agree completely. If nothing, a lower orange stripe to tie it together.

my track car is dark blue orange - maybe these will help

i gotta agree and say it again..it 'screams' track car..and could look awesome if converted to track with all the other sundry mods needed along the way. your car has a mature, stylish-look that's all it's own as it is. i hope you keep it just the way it is..it's already a head-turner.

I don't know!! I'm kind of dig'n this look!

I think this dirty orange/red/pink works better with your car though.

Where do you get the matching colour trim? I think it looks great - one of the things I'm considering if I ever paint my car.

Thanks!

I think you'll be getting a letter from the lawyers representing Howard Johnson's on trademark infringement.

Hmmm, now I want some fried clams.

i bought the orange porsche stripes from a supplier in malta over the 'net. a search here for decals should yeild the url. then i had my wheels painted to match and some similar stripes for the bumpers cut locally.

This is the orange I wanted to try to have photoshopped

THANKS TO ALL!

Ryan, Beautiful car!
Sorry Andrew, I agree with the other guys, too much contrast for the street. Just my opinion, of course!

[nixter]

I'll see if I have time later but your car is too light for that bright orange. What makes that car in the link look nice is the contrast of the dark purple paint with the bright orange. They're getting a double visual pop because they're using contrast of value and contrast of colour.

Your car isn't dark but it's not bright either so the contrast of value (brightness) won't work for you. You can use contrast of colour for a similar effect.... which is what I've Photoshop'd

(Colour theory 101)

Ok, that's about as close as I can get it. I still ike the previous one, it works better with your blue.

Ryan,

Thanks - it's actually the coloured stripe on the rubber trim (replacing the chrome strip) that I'm interested in, not the decals. Is what you had made something that replaces the chrome, or goes over top? If you don't mind my asking, what did it cost? I've seen one or two others like that, and I think it looks awesome!
