Photochop Request- HELP!
« on: May 10, 2010, 09:27:45 AM »
Can someone help me out and photochop Norm's F430 bumper on my car?  I am thinking about it depending on how it looks.

I would never make the decision without seeing what it would look like with my configuration first, hence the request for a photochop.  I have a few things that might look weird or might look great with it.

For what it's worth S3480....in order to get a good photochop done, you need a picture of both cars from the exact same angle so that there is no distortion when moving one part to the other.  If the pictures are roughly the same size (ie both taken from 20 feet away) the photochop will turn out even better.

I'm no expert, but I did stay at a Holdiay Inn the other day....and I could not do the chop you want doen with that picture you posted above due to the angle.

I think it'll be pretty difficult to get close to what the car will really look like, Spacy.  The hood isn't nearly as cartoonish in person as that last pic makes it appear.

I looked through my pics of your car and this is the best I can offer:

No, the splitter would be removed.  I don't think it fits the look or design of the F430 bumper.

Just my Opinion here.
I like the stock bumper with splitter better.
I'm not a fan of the front end of MadMods car.

I think if we all say we don't like it, he will end up doing it... We all said that about the hood, and he got that!
