Photoshop

Anyone know how to use and have photoshop that can help me? My truck is like:



The tan at the bottom is going to go. My problem is I can not decide what to do with it. At first, I was thinking to go all red. I have a harley grille and surround ready for paint as well as harley head lights. I then started playing around with it and came up with:



All I can do this in is paint and it looks terrible. I also wanted to see about going red at the bottom and bumpers and leaving the partial hood black with the surround black. Can anyone help me with these? Also if you are feeling generous, I believe these are the wheels I am about to purchase:



Thanks for any help and opinions!

if your going to do black on your truck, do black rims, maybe the same style with a chrome lip. dont mix match colors by doing a red/black truck then chrome rims, IMO it wont flow.

paint your mirror caps red, how the KR's are, as well as handles.

if it was my truck, paint mirror caps and handles red, make entire truck red, then black 22's w/ a chrome lip, and use your harley heads, and get tails.

Yes, those are what I am looking for. I guess to each his own but I really like the one se7en did. All red with the black on top. You guys think it looks bad?

BTW: Thanks!

se7en

what happened to your pic????

edit... nm, guess i didnt give it long enough to show up

I ended up getting fx2 lights instead of HD lights. I thought I was getting HD but when they got here, they are gray and not black. se7en, would it be a pain to switch the lights and then show a DSG color or similar instead of the black to match the heads? Am I asking for too much??

Thanks. Love your truck!

You have the projector heads? How do you like them? Any fogging or peeling? Do you run HID's? How is the scatter with them if so?

The projectors are great. One is peeling at the top. Sucks a little. 6k HIDs with a little scatter but the output is still good. The high isn't as good anymore.
