Photoshop

Is there anyone who is any good with photoshop, and more importantly, can find the time to do me a favour. A friend has offered to paint my alloys on my sporting for me (when i say friend i dont mean "dodgy dave from up the road", its someone who owns a bodyshop). Im looking at a dark grey as i think with my red calipers and red car it would look good but i would like to see it first. Any takers?

Many Thanks

Rich

Re: Photoshop

Thats great. Ive got a pic side on that was taken on a 10.2 megapixel digital slr so i think that should be good enough. Ill do it when i get in from work.

Re: Photoshop

see im the opposite, i always prefer red cars with lighter wheels especially white wheels, i might get mine done at some point in the future, i think the multijet wheels in white would look awesome, especially on venomco (that how you spell that guy with the white stripes down the side) 's car

Re: Photoshop

Im with you both to be honest. Ive always thought that white wheels on a red car look great but a neighbour has a red pug 205 gti with grey wheels and they look fantastic so it swung me. Ive attached a pic of my car side profile if someone would be so kind to have a go photoshopping it. Im also going to attempt to attach a pic of the colour im thinking.

Thanks

Rich

Re: Photoshop

Re: Photoshop

Thanks very much for doing that, looks good. Tried to comment earlier but i couldn't log in.

I like the standard alloys but i want something different, there are more and more gp's on the road now.

"that black thing" on the side is a rubbing strip so people dont damage the paintwork if they slam their door into your car (in theory). Surely you have seen these before.

Re: Photoshop

I think OZ Racing 35th Anniversary alloys would look sweet on your Rosso GP.
