Paint Design Dilemma Exterior

Help with trim and gutter and window frame color?

2 years ago

We have a pink with gray brick house. We are getting new garage doors as shown in this photo shopped photo from our garage door company. I think the color is going to be slightly darker than the actual pic. As you can see the sample in the middle of other photo.
We are also getting new white windows. Getting black windows isn't an option due to cost.
I want dark gray/brown trim around windows and make that the color of the fascia and gutters too. It's that the right way to go with this incredibly hard to work with brick?
Garage door is currently the cream color around windows.
Can someone help photo shop?
