color design help!

Ok we are ordering aluminum today, we had settled on blue colored sides and a mill finish. We are staring to wonder if we should make the hatch blue too. I haven't really seen any teardrops with the hatch a different color then the rest of the roof. Anybody have pics or thoughts?

I did my roof and hatch the same color and the sides a darker color.

Take a picture ... convert it to black and white ... print several copies (turning the darkness down so they are grey instead of black helps) ... and then break out the pencils, or watercolors, or crayons, or pastels, or ...

I kinda see the hatch as a continuation of the roof. If it were me, I'd make the hatch the same color.
