i am about to paint my car in about a month when the rest of the body parts are here...   I was thinking baby blue but i want to see it first...

can someone do me a big favor and photoshop a picture of a s14 or s15 to a nice baby blue color?  or does someone already have a pic?

Here's a real quick job I did of a '96 240...

Don't mind the screwup on the left front wheel <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

Hope it helps you out a bit.

What tool do you use to change the colors, and do you have to hold it throughout the whole thing or can you do it seperately.

I don't know if my question will make any sense to you but hopefully you get what I mean

seems to be a bit green but still it does help.. it seems that lighter coolers take away the mean look of it... u know what i mean? its been called "the dark horse" and what not..

edit: &nbsp;this is the blue i was wondering about.. it looks so good on this eclipse...

I just use the paintbrush tool, but change the mode to "Colour". &nbsp;It retains the image details but allows you to change the colour to whatever you want.

where might one go about finding sample pieces of ... plastic w/ different colored paints? Would a local paint shop have samples that I could see? I'm going to be repainting my Fastback one day soon, I'm just not a fan of red.
Also, where would you guys recommend getting it painted?

or you can crop the car, and adjust the color

but the easiet way is to find the factory color, the metalic blue?

Well im a dumbass. I created a few and thought I saved the one I made in orange in baby blue but I guess it didnt save so I did a real fast version of another car since I had closed photoshop already and lost the mask. It looked good though on twofortysx's car. Sorry I messed up :\

This one I did real fast after I pissed that I didnt save the good one... Sorry! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

I just played with the hue and changed the whole pictures color from the orange one. This picture sucks compared to what I had done, but at least its something.

It is not a baby blue but a sort of deep bright blue. Hope this helps!
