Default What color?

Okay, I have two colors, Racing Red and Metallic Blue. I want to know what part should be blue and which one should be red. I have a Spider paint mask. Here's a pic. Should the white part be blue/red?

A custom car. Too many different kinds of parts for it to actually have a name.

No need to answer this question anymore, folks. I'm waiting for the first color to dry and then i'm puttin' on the red. I used the opposite of what Rosati told me to use.

Not too bad for a newbie like me. That is, if you ask me though.

You said it's not bad for a newbie - is this your first paintjob? If it is, I think you did a great job! Don't let the critics get you down. Just keep on sprayin' and they'll keep getting better!
