Question Photoshop Help Needed

I am thinking about painting my fender strakes or purchasing the painted ones from rx8strakes.com, but I can't decide if I want them winning blue like my car or perhaps yellow like my calipers.

Could someone here photoshop me a picture of a winning blue 8 with bright yellow fender strakes and calipers. I would greatly appreciate it.

Blue all the way, the yellow would look weird on the side of the car, very out of place

That should be a fairly easy photoshop. Posting up a pic of a winning blue 8 with silver strakes would help a lot though.

Basically, blue and yellow are inverse colors (opposite in the spectrum). Invers colors are most aesthetically pleasing to the eye, they just seem to naturally go. Red and green, orange and purple, the list goes on.

As far as yours, if you're going to get strakes I would probably go for the basic silver/gray or whatever they naturally come in. orig>blue>yellow Personally I'm not a fan of strakes but hey, whatever floats your boat.

Ahmmmm, please excuse me with a minor correction. Inverse color is a mathematical term and refers to opposite hexadecimal code color which is RGB. Complimentary color refers to reflective color such as paint which is proper in this case. The opposite of orange is blue and the opposite of "purple" (violet) is Yellow but you are correct on the opposite of red being green.
