    Thinking of going ALL black, need some help.
    « on: April 12, 2008 - 09:48:12 PM »
    Hey guys, I am thinking of going ALL black on my Challenger and was wondering if some of you computer wizards out there can help me out with editing this picture making the wheels/bumpers black.  Eventually would get rid of vinyl top as well.  Thinking of doing fiberglass/rubber black bumpers and powder coating the wheels black as well.  Thanks for the help/advice.

    I think your Challenger looks really mean as is. :bigsmile: Too much black can sometimes make a car look bad. I think your car has the right amount of black and the right amount of chrome :cheers:

    I couldn't agree more. I love the way it currently looks. I think the chrome bumpers as they offset the Black perfectly. That said I'm sure it'll look great either way.  :thumbsup:

    I think it would look great, but I would black chrome the wheels and maybe the bumpers.

    71 BB can you do another with the Black wheels and the Chrome bumper. I just wanted to see how that would look. Only if you don't mind.  :biggrin:

    Hmmm... The more I shave, the more I like!  See if you can spot the differences...   :cooldancing:

    MoMan- sure.

    Window trim ?

    Moparbulldog - I agree I like it with everything done. It turned out much better than I expected. Photo shop is a great thing. Much cheaper than doing it to find out you don't like it.  :)

    Scoop inserts, hood pins, Challenger emblem, door handle, stickers, dodge letters across the front.  You never really know why it looks so clean till all those are gone. 

    You're welcome, guys.   :2thumbs:
