Default Photoshop request...

Could any of you photoshop this image of my Tvr Griffith (wich has been photoshopped already with a custom short windshield and hoosier tires) with satin black paint (same as my vette) and a white race number on the door please?



I think this is going to be my winter project job, further lighten this 2.250lbs (down to the 2.000lbs mark) Griffith and make a sweet open roadster out of it...

PANIC!! Hey, we missed you! Thought maybe the popo put you away for speeding!
My daughter toured Italy this summer with a softball team representing the USA- she loved it! Rome, Florence, Milan, Verona.
How is the vette?

Boog, Wayne..thanks for the pgotoshops.
That grey looks good with the blk hood!

Saudi, here you have a bigger pic if you could pls cut the windshield (like in the other pic) and add flares...



but i see already it'll worth doing what i have in mind for the winter

I have been at home for quite a long vacation...i lost 8 kgs (good for the vette too...), maximum activity, the sea... the near hills around...i couldnt stop swimming and trecking around

Gotta have something constructive to do when the temps outside keep me house bound!


Panic, I've started working on it but have you got some other pics of your C3 at a similar angle to this one so I can photochop your Hoosiers off it?

I love that 'military' dark grey, i think satin and with the satin black hood would really look the business!!

How's this mate? Are the flares and the windscreen what you were after?



Got a bit of a carbon fiber hood going on here. The weave isn't really to scale, but you can sort of see what it would look like

Thanks a lot, perfect job...windscreen will be shorter, like an open can am car...just to deflect air at speed.

Color the previous you photoshopped was a darker grey, which i believe was a bit more dramatic...

I'm glad you like it. Are the flares and the chopped screen what you had in mind?

Yes, the windshield will be shorter in the final mod, flares might have to be larger to acomodate a 15x10 or 15x11 wheel...but i get a good idea of what is going to look like from our photoshop anyway.

Thanks
