It is photoshopped. And the more I look at the skirt, the more I like it.

The more I look at the PSed delta sports's grill, the more I hate it.

Those side skirts and the front lip spoiler that no one likes would look sweet. Well at least to me anyway. Thats some nice photo work Lwin. That is a really nice looking red, wich oddly enough is one of the most exspensive colors.

Could you chop the front lip on there?

Please?

The front lip is fully stock. Go look at the one you have.


The only difference is that on this bumper, there are water jets to clean the headlight.

I know the one on the pic is stock? I meant that if this lip were on there http://www.geocities.com/pepesvx/exclusive.html (no one seems to like it) that would look pretty nice as well, at least in my opinion. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

pretty much all i like is the color combo, and i REALLY like that..

the side skirts would be neat if they were functional, but i like the way the sides look stock.. the grille thing has got to go.. the wheels are pretty nice but i'd like to see them in person before passing final judgement.. that gray color doesn't go too great with the red..

I think those side skirts look pretty cool... good work on the chop Lwin. I think it would need a little something more on the front to balance it out, like Stevebsy's front bumper cover or the Delta speed lips. I see what you mean by liking the side skirts more ever time you look at 'em. I thought that it wasn't as cool at first, since the stock ones angle down right in front of the rear wheels (and I really like that)... but I looked at it a few times, and now I want to buy 'em now. Guess I'll have to just get out the particle board and some duct tape.

I think it's a ... different idea I guess, and I also think you need to practice at Photoshop a bit.

Practice @ photoshop? I think his photoshop work is great! I know there's no way in hell that I could do any where near as good as Lwin does....I still love the sideskirts and think you did a great job!!!

To you maybe. The front grill isn't the right red, and that could be fixed in less than 2 minutes. The sideskirts aren't at the right angle, you can tell they were from a more 'side view' of a car, and Lwin just angled them and pasted em on. If it was a GOOD job at photoshop, you'd think it was a real photo.

- Rob

PS: Not trying to insult you Lwin, it works fine for expressing your intended idea.

PPS: This one took me about 30 minutes, I added the clear headlights, and I constructed the whole front bumper. See how it looks almost photorealistic? Takes practice.

Some people just can't go without taking a potshot but day 2 and I still love it. The red looks real god. Almost to the point where I want that red more than a Yellow one.

I like it too, Lwin. Of course that color goes a long way to my liking it. But I do like the side skirts. Somewhere between those and the prototype ones would be awesome. I mention the prototypes because they took the place of the bottom cladding and look more blended rather than just an add on. Could you photoshop it that way, where the skirt would be one piece with the rear cladding piece (stretched all the way up to that line)? I don't have PS so I can't really get my point across, sorry.
