need help.
Its time to fix the paint job I had and this time I'm going for show car quality. I have been contemplating over color choice. Stick with same color or ferrari red, go white or pearl white, metallic gray, or chrome. I do like the chrome, but not sure what it would look like on our cars. I plan to have a shop do chrome on the gas door to see how good it would be, but if one of you guys good with photoshop can make my car chrome I would appreciate it. This is what it looks like now.  This is the type of chrome I like.

QUOTE (2bcelica @ Jun 12, 2010 - 10:56 PM)  If you're still interested in the "chrome" theme, why not have these grills done? I used to own a red car with Chrome door guards and tail lights... the red/chrome combo is sick!

Maybe I'll just spray paint it myself later. Might actually look nice. Well the engine is almost complete. A few more days and it'll be back on the road. Will get some more udpated pics soon. |
