Default Photoshop request
I can still remember black and white TV, so it stands to reason that I stink at Photoshop. Could one of you youngsters out there please photoshop a black C8 coupe with gold wheels - both stock wheels and "snowflake wheels"? Thanks.

And it you have any spare time, what do you think about a triple black C8 with a Trans Am screaming chicken on the frunk? Smokey and the Bandit 2020?

Always impressed that all wheel pics are on cars lowered about 2 inches....... And they all look good, just not driveable.

thanks for the responses. the wheels in the picture are rose gold. I was looking for something closer to "pure gold".

I was just about to mention this, and saw your remark. Making the Photoshopped car worse is that not only are the wheels jammed up inside the wheel wells, but the car itself is not actually rendered as being lowered as much as it would have to be to achieve that look. The ground is at around the same level from the bottom of the car as it would be normally. So it's a total cheat, not something achievable.

I am assuming/praying you're being sarcastic?? That would be on the top 10 tackiest & tasteless sh*t someone can do to a Corvette and I've seen a lot of tacky sh*t done to it!!

would you consider C8 "jakes" on yellow fender shields? (Maxwell Smart).

come on guys. let's stop taking this stuff so seriously. it's a great car, but it's a car. not rocket surgery.

Of course, this is the only way young guys around Fort Myers would want it, at which point someone like me would likely shoot them with the shotgun they'd hang on the rear window.
