Default Photoshop/paint request





I'd really like to see what my car would look like Sunset Orange Metallic and whatever GM calls
the bright yellow on the C6's....

Any help would be appreciated..

I can do the orange. The yellow is not going to work since your car is already a dark metallic color.

this is the best I could do with yellow. (Velocity Yellow)





I'm sure someone with more knowledge and skills than me will chime in with a real yellow one. I'll keep trying though. You may want to ask the forum members in OT, they can photoshop anything you throw at them.

To help you out its called SUNBURST
I looked at a Cobalt in that color didnt like it too much (looks like a PUMPKIN


Not too many silver ones in my area so i went with that...

My mother in law has a Sunburst Cobalt i can snag the paint code if you need it..Just PM me and let me know..

Wow, that was impressive!

It would be great if someone could teach us the basics of photoshop , just to fool around and make wheel and color swaps. ( Well I know I am asking a lot )

Great job!
