  1. I like it. I'd like the numbers in black but in this style you have here. Also above the numbers is a black cowlpiece that I'd like white. And just above the rear tire is an opening that I'd like white too.

    Still I appreciate what you have done so far. Thanks

    A bit O/T but if someone could lower this thing a couple inches, and paint it white, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Besides that, as with everything else, go crazy with it. And try to cut out that ugly kid behind the truck btw.

    I made the piece that I used as my avatar. Who is Alex Gray? Yeah, I thought you might have been pinned up against the wall on that one.

    You can download Photoshop Elements for a trial period here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshopelwin/

    but after that, you'll have to buy it like us shmucks. People with a student ID can get it for the much discounted price of ~$200-300.

  24. Found a small pic of a black 53 on Ebay, rather than spend time repainting your car. I tried a red roof and a few other colours - it didn´t look good. The off white seems to be ideal. Tried scallops too, but it wasn´t really an improvement either. The lines of the chrome trim are too strong already.

    James D thanx for the photo.The black Buick looks great and give me ideas plus what you said really makes sense.I have a pair of lake pipe which will go on the sled but I think a complete satin black job would do the sled justice.thanks for your time my friend.
     
  27. Black will always work well.

    I forget who coined it, but someone on here came up with the phrase "spooky bad guys cars" to describe how Kustoms should look. Keep that in mind, and you won´t go far wrong.

    Hi all, I've been photoshopping my car for the last couple of months and have run out of ideas; a few hundred sets of fresh eyes might help:D. To be realistic, no chop--but I am interested in paint schemes, scallops, lowering a few inches, wheels, basically whatever you think might look neat. I want to change the car up a bit next year and could use yer help. Thanks.

    Adobe Photoshop elements is the easiest, fastest and cheepest way to manipulate photos. For $80 bucks it can do almost as much as the really expensive full version of Photoshop. The latest version has the most awesome storage, photo correction and photo sharing program ever created...

    Another tip is; if you don't have a great photo of what your going to manipulate, go find a better one. I can't believe the photos you hambers submit for someone to fix. The old saying "garbage in garbage out" really applies here.

    If you want someone to spend their valuable time fixing up your ride, at least take the time to submit a good photograph...
