Default is this featured car a photoshop or what????

Ok im not slamin this car or the user but this looks like a photoshop job to me!!



this is a featured car on Scionlife but I cant help but think the the picture looks fake.
let me see more pics of this car!!! the carbon on the hood seems like a large weave
plus the reflections on the lambo doors follow the reflections on the car but the doors
are at a different angle.. if you look at the brick back ground next to the passanger side mirror you can see that the brick does not match up. i can under stand covering a buisness name or no parking sign or somthing but there are just to many weird things with the picture. Its some good photoshopin if thats the case. again im not dissin the car or the user but i wanna see the real thing, especially if its a featured car..

I have to agree... too many imperfections in the photo... it looks sweet... but just doesn't look right... more pics would be nice... and that back wheel looks like the spacing is very off...???

The bricks are a dead give away. This pictures looks like it is being taken in an alley, but the reflection on the door looks like it is taken in a street near a house or so

really really really bad photoshop. Look at were the carbon hood meets the bumper, it like stops being carbon and turns all blocky. Look at how the hood doesnt have any reflections. Look at how oviously chopped the front grill is, its like all blurry and powdery. If you look at the glossy reflection of the paint, you can see a fence, grass, basicly a wide open area. But LOOK there is a brick wall running through the middle of nowere!

very bad photoshop.

the front rim isnt on the tire right, grille looks like crap, the door is whisper thin and has no hinge (not to mention that it is physically impossible for our door to exist in that position), the brick wall lacks continuity, there are unidentifyable artifacts behind the rims (TOO off to be rotors), reflections are all wrong, "carbon fiber" hood loses its carbon fiber when nearing the front bumper.

where was this a featured ride?

I believe it was just one of the profiles that gets popped up randomly on the first page to vote on.... there are a few really cheesy photos bouncing around in the registry that get popped up there from time to time.

it is the work of the guy that won the custom 06 civic si contest.
not the user. 20s with a 2in drop isnt going to look like that. some of us know what a 1in drop on 20s looks like and its no where near that low with no bodykit.

GO AHEAD AND LOCK THIS MESS UP MODS. the lier has been snuffed out.
