Here's my car as it is.

What tinting scheme do you think would be best?

grab photoshop, in paintshop its a bitch cause you have to select all the individual areas and then adjust the color levels, hue, contrast, and so on all individually.

in photoshop you just point and click.

Just kidding leave your car the way it is.
You have a one of a kinda rx7, and everybody knows you by the ways your car is done.

besides clear lenses don't match dark cars

they lost their wing.
As for the smurf blue... it looks deec, but nothing like the latter royal blue.

Well if youre going to trash talk me might as well back it up.

Saying i suck at photoshop is a real slap in the face cause thats kinda what i do and am attending college for. But evreything i know in photoshop is self taught tho this point.

ioTus, I never said you sucked, man. I merely said that you took longer than you could have

I've been using Photoshop since 1995 and use it daily for fun and profit. It's busting your chops, not saying you suck man I hope you learn lots in your courses - Photoshop is a great tool and there's always something more you can learn

Add another vote for tint... I plan on doing on my car, but to many other things I need to do first.

tinting not only looks good, it keeps the car cooler, and it's a good security measure.

BTW- this is a vote for the tint.

I actually painted my first 1st gen that color. It was an accident, the color was mixed wrong. But it did look good. It glowed at night under lights. It was just too bright for me. Didn't realize how bright until I saw a Corvette coming at me on the Interstate, painted the same color. Saw it a mile away. Knew it was time to change.
Tinting windows? Not even a question. Do it!!
