Photoshop help anyone?


The car is in the body shop getting repainted right now and I'd like to see what it would look like with white stripes instead of black. If someone could help me out I'd appreciate it.

It's in the shop getting a complete repaint. I take to Mike's Body Shop in Low Moor, Ia. He does a great job and has always treated me right. I thought while it was in getting the repaint that I'd take a look at just changing the color of the stripes. I probably won't, but I'd still like to see what it would look like if I did.

That car would look a million times better if you put an 87 IROC front clip on it, and lowered it about 2"

I was going to say black- but dark blue would look damn good! Hell, get some dark blue flames off the fenders too... something that someone has to really look for to see.
