Photoshop request!!

Hey guys

So my car has been having a few issues with the paint - clearcoar is peeling, a few deep scratches (I mean DEEP!), some rust spots, and the fact that I need to grab a new driver-side front fender mean that this summer I'm probably going to repaint my car (Tremclad/Rustoleum). Not looking for a epic professional paintjob, but something that looks pretty decent, and I'm certain that with a week, week and a half in the garage, I should be able to get it done well (Using parents cars/bike/bumming rides in the meantime).










There's a few pics of the car - not sure what's easiest to photoshop so I put a few up.


Colors I've been thinking of (want to match the interior - tan/beige)

1) Laguna Seca Blue (E46 M3)



2) Imola Red


3) Canary Yellow



And possibly Gloss black (sort of like this)





If anyone could help me out (since I'm super crappy at photoshop), it would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance!!
Stef

*EDIT* Planning on keeping stripes on the side if I can (will got to local decal shop, ask em to take a pic and touch it up, recolor, etc), if that can be included in the p-shop, that would be fantastic (if it can't/is too time consuming, no worries)!

Agreed. Black or blue. But not both...people don't like it....trust me.

I'm also gonna be doing the Tremclad paint job this summer. Woot woot!

But I'm going for a little bit of a darker color....

I wasn't thinking of going for a 2-tone paint job
1 full color, and probably black trim (wing, door handles)

Woot, we're painting bros!!

Here's a quick photochop of the two colors we seem to be leaning towards.

Blue is my favorite color, but this is better. Bye the way, do they have Maco up there? You can do a cheap paint job for about $400 if you can believe their commercials.

Leaning towards black too, but if it's going to be sitting on the enkeis, I'm kind of torn... lol.
Unfortunately, nope to the maaco, but frankly, if a paintjob costs $400 with labor included, it's probably going to be a thin coat or two at most... If it gets done, it's getting done once, and it's getting done right

I like the black as well. But with maaco, and other cheap paint jobs, you get what you pay for.

They tend to just once over it with a power sander, then spray one or two coats. Little prep work, usually don't mask off areas, and the paint is usually poor quality.
