Default Photoshop Request!!!

I've been thinking of some ways to add some suttle touches to the outside of the Z. I like the look of painting the bottom of the rear bumper black. But i don't think it would look right on an Electron Blue vette. But maybe Silver would look cool. If someone can photoshop this pic with silver, that would be cool! Thanks.

The silver was a little tough to make look 100% realistic, but this gives an idea. I think the black looks good, too.

Instead of silver how about a darker gray?

Thanks for the photochop! Definately no black, the blue is too dark for it to look good. The silver might look cool if it was a bit darker. I've been debating on Silver CE Stripes with no red, just silver. I guess i'll have to start looking at some color chips and see what might look good. Thanks again!

You're very welcome for the 'chop. I really like the way the black looks, too... it compliments all the trim on the car, and it's subtle yet distinctive.
