Default Blade Silver photoshop request..

Wondering if anyone would be kind enough to photoshop a silver Z51 with both black and silver wheels and make the brake calipers ZR1 blue??? Thanks as I am not that talented with computer graphic art...

Quick one. Don't look too close at the brakes.

I have to say, when I first read your request I thought . But in all honesty it doesnt look all that bad with the black wheels, but with the silver wheels; no.

The brakes shown in that photo are actually C6 ZR1 calipers. I didn't paint the blue, I snipped it from a GM photo of a ZR1 rotor and caliper and pasted them in behind a dummy wheel and erased the negative space between the spokes. It doesn't get any more ZR1 blue than this, LOL.

Where was the photo in post #2 taken? Those are the widest parking lot slots I've ever seen, and the low curbs are certainly Vette-friendly
