new idea for painted grill, what do you think

montreal_bimmer · 03-15-2007, 10:25 AM

i'm getting my grill repainted soon, and was wondering how this would look. so i photoshopped it.

this is my first photoshop EVER, so dont flame my photoshop skills, because i know they suck. but you get the idea.

and to whoever owns the car in your pics, i hope you dont mind me using it as a model.

ALL BLACK

MY IDEA

this is just an idea, so let me know what you think.

It looks like the top grill is missing.

oneshare325 · 03-15-2007, 11:09 AM

iatacs19 · 03-15-2007, 12:07 PM

DrGP · 03-15-2007, 12:36 PM

///M3NACE · 03-15-2007, 12:41 PM

someone should photoshop the whole grill to be white...i think it'll look pretty nice

325 Baller · 03-15-2007, 05:49 PM
