MOAR LOW!

Did you take those pictures over near Anthem? I think I recognize the area.

Also, being a big guy makes your car sit lower, too.

Anthem Highlands to be exact! across the street from the Albertson's.

well got board today and decided to paint a little!
First thing I did was take out my stock center consule and get rid of the silver paint, it doesn't look right with a brown/tan interior. I had a can of Gloss Tan and went to town on it!




its a good start, now I need another can of paint so I can pull the center dash plate out and do it to.

After that I was looking at the foglight covers and decided that a coat of black would make them look a little better as they are a little beat up.


in all it took about 2hrs and a half can of paint (X2)

OK, time for some fun. Got to try out a new photo editing software today and thought I would use the car a test.
Kind of the look Im going for anyway!

Can you spot all the things I changed?

[808domi54]

Side mirrors, Calipers, Eye brows, Focus, Red by licence plate, White upper grill, ;D

[bobstone2131]

Yep you got them, now I have to make it real!

[808domi54]

I'm not a real fan of the 2 red lines in front, but otherwise everything else looks good.

[bobstone2131]

I did them black the first time, then there was this floating chin spoiler that looked a little goofy. so i tried a little red t make it stand out and for a little color, the hard part is getting the red color just right otherwise is looks a little ricy!

Check this out everyone, we had some fun on FF last night doing some PH/GIMP editing of my car. This is from FF member "RED JAY 918" he did a great job and pretty much nailed the look I want. what do you all think?


Oh and Dom if you want to PH an RS bumper on there that would be cool as well, I can send you differant pictures if you want. or you can go through my photobucket album and pick

I'll photoshop a RS bumper on, but you have to remember I'm going to have to butcher the top part of the bumper cause of the RS headlights are different.

[bobstone2131]

of course you would have to, in real life it would take some fiberglass magic to pull it off as well.
It would be cool to really fit one on and pull a mold, then make fiberglass or Carbon-fiber conversion bumpers AKA $$$$$$$$$$$$$!

[808domi54]

I'm thinking about either the MK2 front bumper or the MK1 RS front bumper. I'm kinda leaning towards the MK1 cause it would be easier ;D

[bobstone2131]

what ever works easier, your doing all the work!

[808domi54]

I'm bored and decided to just copy your idea on to another picture. Sorry for butchering the right head light
