if you could give me a smooth boot, red spoiler, red skirts, and maybe one with red bottom rear bumper lip, if you could mess around that'd be great cheers people. its just i dont want to do different stuff to it then relise i dont like it lol

[Mike]

sell me those wheels lew! lol

red skirts, meh thats poo mate lol

[JSeymour]

paint the bottom part off the front bumper the same colour as the rear splitter and the side skirts, thats what id do anyway!

car looks awsome btw

[L14MNP]

Car looks mint mate :D

How the hell is that bumper on the deck like that?! (front)

[Stoo]

Looks tidy that Lew

im up in preston next weekend, maybe meet up and have a look at each others motors!

[SRlew]

hey stu well i would well be up for that but my cars sat in the garden not working at the minute, but if your in southport at any time gimme a shout and pop by or somthing,

mike i doubt i'll be selling the wheels lol but i am looking at a set of 14" alloys at the min.

what you all think of smoothed boots then?

or do i just leave the car as it is? and keep it different with the grey parts etc?

[GTE TURBZ]

Nice car mate!!

Yeah mate as jseymour said paint the bottom of the front bumper (skirt) same as or near colour as the side skirts.

Colour code the bootlid spolier/ wing mirrors and get some black viny for the bootlid, its your ideal opportunity to make it look like a GTElol Only joking each to their own!!!

What i would like to know is what lowering set up have you got as my old nova was sitting exactly like your including the wheel and tyre profile from what i can see (they werent white though) and now i want my new one to be sitting in exactly the same way ride height?

:thumb:

[SRlew]

lol yeh the ride height and set up looks soo good i think!

yeh i m trying to find a red sr tailgate with vynal on, found a white one and was going to leave the writing in white to match the wheels but thought it might look gay lol

right i'll do the grill and spoiler red i think, but i need vynal on the boot if i spray the spoiler!

cheers for the comments guys!

[gossy]

did give it a go but could not get the coulor to match as i am new to puotshop

[SRlew]

what ya got then mate! any thing that gives me an idea is all good lol

[SRlew]

umm jack spot on mate! think thatd look good actually! i like it alot!

think thats the way to go now!

[gossy]

looks alright but tis not the same red but ya get the idea

[SRlew]

yeh i do like it! maybe a matt black on the tailgate, or just a grey with the same grey on the bumper bottoms and skirts like

[Jack]

Red is never a good colour to match lol

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a266/razorjack/Misc/srlew2a.jpg

[SRlew]

black light look a bit much i think, but the wheels the same colour as the grey/black of the tailgate could look good!

cheers jack! what else ya got lol

[GTE TURBZ]

the white wheels look way better!

[SRlew]

i do like them in white tbh, but im getting another set of wheels to do dark i think,

jack, that last pic is growing on me lol, it make it a beast looking like that with the xe in soon!

[ANDYRACER]

Paint the bumpers, spoiler and the grill rover hurricane grey, also do the skirts. Leave the boot and flush the grab handle to loose the lock and paint again hurricane grey.
Wheels (well u copied me) leave white.

[Matt2107]

Just an idea... how about paint the skirts, front and back lip white and leave your white wheels on oh and the bottom half of the boot red.

[sri_boi]

how low is the front of that......fooook me!

[Jack]

[SRlew]

ahhh jack!! thats the best so far lol looks better with grey bumpers with the spoiler red aswell tbh

um thats it! its going back to grey bumpers, but with colour coded wheels! top work there jack!

the front is only like 60mm i think, i want it lower though (front that is)

[Lee H]

I'd change the number plates back to rectangular ones as well, think square ones look awful, especially on the back.

[SRlew]

yeh i was considering changing them back and having the front one quiet low in the middle like, but im unsure whether to change them now, as its just somthing different and its grown on me lol

[Jack]

I'd say change the back, but leave the front...

[Matt2107]

lol I'd do the opposite... change the front leave the back.

[SRlew]

LMAO might get a back one made up and see what it looks like when it gets resprayed

jack try and get on the case mate! is it possible to edit a normal plate on the rear?

[Matt2107]

You could go for short rectangular... you can shorten them by a certain amount and still be legal... cant remember what it is though.

[SRlew]

ah right sounds good. might look in to that!

[Jack]

I did try to 'shop it to a normal plate but it all went a bit Pete Tong lol

I think a smaller plate might look a bit lost in the recess... what about an import size plate:

You can also get them with better lettering, but can't find a pic at the mo

[SRlew]

jack one more for ya mate! you know the vynal that goes along the bottom on the side of the car, fancy trying to put the same grey used on the bumpers across the side (like vynal) me and me brother like the idea of making it look standard again lol

[Jack]

[SRlew]

oooo thats looking good! think it'll be like that now! cheers jack! some good work mate! lol

[Jack]

You know where that rep button is lol

[ellwood]

that last one looks really like mine hurricane gray all round

[rc]

where do you get photoshop from? is it a program you download or do you get it in a shop, if so whats it proper name etc, i wanna start playing!

[sri_boi]

adobe photoshop, i have number 7.0 its pretty good to be honest!!
i got it off a friend, it was just on disc and took about 5minutes to install and load :)

[sri_boi]

but heard its expensive...havnt looked this up though!

[Stoo]

Lew, ditch the skirts

Refit the side vinyl

Buy my early tailgate off me and so on!!

[Jack]

Paint Shop Pro is my preferred choice, but I like to be different lol

Commercial versions of that and Photoshop are quite expensive. However, I make do with PSP4 and 5 which both have shareware versions floating around.
