My first half-assed photochop of my CB7

[avendi]

This is the first time for me to do a photo manip. on a car, let alone my own car.
So here it is using the new pictures from Thursday's local meet:

BEFORE


AFTER



I didn't bother with shading on the lip since I drew it in myself, and I also put a slight glow around it so that you could actually tell something was there. I don't know that I will get a lip exactly like that, but I just figured that it was close enough.

I got the tire image from the 'New shoes mang!' thread, because those OZ Rally rims are what I want to get.

Basically, this is a general visual idea of how I want my CB7 to look not too long from now.

Comments and Suggestions are welcome.

not bad for ur first time...the lip looks totally fake, but the rims arent bad....u should do something with the headlights...clear corners on a white cb7 are hott....or all amber style...that would look alot better then stock...or try the carbon fiber hood chop...that would look sexy...OR.get all of these things soon and take a real picture with them on there...lol....

Yeah, I have blacked out headlights on the way, and I'm thinking I'll go with amber corners to give it a sort of 'refined stock look'.
I know the 'lip' looks really fake, but that's because I was lazy and just kind of scribbled it on there with only one color so it gave no depth to it.
The rims turned out kind of crappy in the picture because of some color distortion, but they look awesome in their original form.
I'll play with the CF idea, but I am really liking how the hood, grill, and bumper sort of flow together with the white.

Looks just like my car right?

Also, what style grill is that?
Looks like a 90-91 DIY.

Yeah, it pretty much looks like your car.

The grill in the first picture (BEFORE) is the 92-93 oem grill with a couple DIY mods done to it.
The second one is a digital recreation of the 90-91 grill I bought, but painted white to match.

I blacked out the grille on my car like yours, and I ended up changing it because it didn't look quite right on my all white car.

I ended up getting a 2nd lower grille piece, painting it white along with the original lower grill piece, and putting the 2nd one in place of the top one that had the H emblem. A much cleaner look IMO.

Interesting idea. I must see it on your car.

EDIT: LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one with coyote damage on my car.
