Some photoshop fun

[Patton]

I added 18" saleen rims, a hood scoop, and a bugdeflector onto my 2001 explorer sport with photoshop.
It doesn't look very good, I just cooked this up in a few hours to give myself an idea of what all this might look like on my explorer. Anyways, I thought I might share it with you to see what all yall think. How does it look?

P.S. don't look at the picture too long, you'll start noticing some glaring errors that I'm not skilled enough with photo shop to fix such as that front passenger tire. I just could NOT figure out how to make that look right.

Patton - maybe try making the grey cladding black to see what it will look like?

I remember trying that and not liking the way it turned out. I'll try it again though.

I'm not sure what you mean?

I'm not sure what you mean?

In Photoshop on the bottom of the layer window, there is that half black & white circle with options. You can use levels and curves or Brightness/contrast etc...to make your front wheel match the rear and look better.

Like so...

Ah very nice!!!!!
OH you DID NOT just lower my explorer!!!!! BLASHPHEMY

What do you suggest I get then?

 

[FROADER]

Oh, sweet. Give me a few minutes and I'll show you what I like for a black sport.

Go with American Racing Nitro rims and some 32"s. That would look awsome.

That is not the look I am going for. I was looking at around 18" for my rims.

 

[FROADER]

They come in 18"s.

Although I like the blacked out trim, I'm not a fan of the tires/rims. Is putting some streetish rims on a 2" lifted explorer some kind of customization faux paux? Personally I like the way my explorer looks with those 18" rims...

 

[FROADER]

Not a faux paux, just not my style. If it's your style then do it. It's your truck.
What size tires are you going to put on it?

I don't know. The size that is on those rims in the picture look good. What do you think those are size wise?

 

[FROADER]

Maybe 32s...?

 

[Patton]

No the tires rapped on the cobra R's... the pirelli scorpions
