Can somebody PhotoShop the white stripe on this Tangerine car into a significantly lighter orange, like Signal Orange? ...But not yellow.

I've seen you guys do this before an I really appreciate the help.

Bryan, you're making this tough color choice decision even tougher.

ha ha...sorry. I am in the business of 'what if'. I think you are on the right track. I think there are 2 routes for 'graphics'....subdued and high contrast. You are going the subdued route. The white stripes are obviously high contrast. I like both of those colors and they compliment each other nicely.

...color co-ordinate 'P O R S C H E' graphic on the rocker?

it might look really cool to have the strip done in a matte finish.

My opinion rarely matters in my household, but I've still not learned not to share it: I LOVE the tone-on-tone look. It works. But I look at that non-striped orange 911 with the CIBIE's and think, damn, why touch it? It looks so good just like that. Sorry, but I'd leave it solid (I can't believe I'm saying that!). - Rich
