Default Photoshop guru help pleae.

I'd like to see a tC with a molded OEM front lip, but with the middle of the lip under the grill cut out.

Weird request?

Im too lazy to put the time a ps job you are asking for would require (rerendering and drawing in parts.), so I did a quick chop with the clone stamp tool and a bit of cut n paste, you just want an idea of what it might look like right?

Yes I know the pipin is missing and yada yada

here ya go

no it doesnt, cutting the lip looks bad.

just get black vinyl


the missing lip makes it look incomplete.

IMO black vinyl below the grill much better.

First off, sorry Betwo for desecrating your tC.

Secondly, picture this. Buy an OEM front lip, but before you put it on the car cut it into three pieces. Two outers and one center. Discard the center.

Install, mold, paint the two outers to the front bumper. The middle wouldn't be empty. It would be the stock bumper.

Sorry I couldn't communicate that very well.

its definately unique,

you'd literally be the only person that has it like that.

doesnt look bad, but different.
Im gonna post that pic in other threads and see if anyone else notices the cut lip
I hope you dont mind, I just want to see what the reaction will be.

I think that is the 'effect' that you get when you use vinyl/paint in the same area....but I like that look....its unique....
