Photoshop request... & DarkSky pics

[SLtoRL]

Hello all,

First and foremost, I know there is someone on here that is beyond amazing with Photoshop and I am hoping that someone will help me out.

I have a midnight blue Sky Redline. I have been considering doing almost an identical replica of the DarkSky pictures below and was hoping to see how it would look on a midnight blue Sky prior to beginning the process.

The pictures below were taken tonight in front of Saturn of Santa Clarita. I have been visualizing the same general concept in my head for a while. However, instead of the red stripe around the rims I would like a midnight blue stripe to match the car. I want the windshield surround, hood vents, door handles and silver strip behind the car to all be black (anything that is chrome or silver will be replaced with black).

Someone please help me out with this. It will really help me to see what is in my head and help me decide what my next steps should be. I have attached the pictures I took tonight from my cell phone along with a picture of my car, but feel free to use any midnight blue Sky picture if it is easier. Oh and I will be replacing my grill with the Steinmetz Euro Grill located here rather than the stock chrome grill and my tail lights will remain smoked out.

On a side note, can you believe the price they are asking for this car!!!

Thank you in advance!

There is beyond amazing...and there is miracle worker. In order to do this without literally re-drawing the whole kit, you need shots of the same angles for the ground effects package and rims. You need Good shots, not cell phone.

Someone is either going to have to hunt down all kinds of photo's from somewhere or re-draw everything.

If you would like me to do it for you, go back with your real camera and get shots at the same angles of your car and that car, preferably in the same lighting condition (right behind the dealer car, DURING DAYLIGHT) shot at the same time.

I have no problem doing photoshop favors, and neither does Spag, but give us something to work with, time is money.

On a side note, that side skirt goes over the front fender which needs to be removed when the battery comes out. If you get that kit, you may want to have the body shop cut it at the fender piece so you do not have to take the whole side skirt off every time you access the battery.


ALso, that dealer is a supporting vendor, and that car has either been there for a while or they got another one made

I sent you a PM.

I would go with the front bumper kit and the rear defuser kit.


Definalty not worth 42K though. LOL!

That front bumper is $700 and the rear is maybe $400 painted to match maybe $300 just for the front.

Also you car is almost the same color as the black? Why would you want a photochop you can just look at the pics and imagine.

I would leave your car as is...it looks great...our cars need the chrome for accent...don't touch your car...it looks TERRIFIC! By the way, who makes your rims?

[xmicro_Redline]

I have to agree with MM, BUT it depends on the look your going for.

I did the best I could without spending 5 hours. This took about an hour and I even gave you Blue Calipers. Hope I didn't forget anything.

I say it will at least give you a good Idea.

Thank you. I really do appreciate it.

The wheels are 20" American Racing Casinos.
You know anyone that would be interested in them?

20 inch wheels...too large for me...

I am curious about the performance of 20" on the Sky. Especially ones that are lighter than stock wheels.

I wish I could help you out, but my rims are definitely heavier than stock.
