I'm gonna be paintin my cover like this KR owner did, but i can't decide between silver backround with black "triton" and red "5.4L" ---OR--- silver backround with back "5.4L" and red "triton". Could someone please photoshop this pic for me so i can decide which would look better?
Or maybe even gloss black backround with Silver and Red as the writing. I can't decide.


Or if anybody has any other color suggestions i would appreciate it.

Thanks alot for any help.

 

Hope you like...

 

and the other...

 

Thanks alot for the help guys. I really wanna learn how to use photoshop one day. Anyway, i think i'm gonna go with the one that has the black triton and red 5.4 L. Thanks again guys.

 

What, just because he did a better job? I used paint, i have Photoshop, i just dunno how to use it

 

LLoverCrazyJay, naa, i just picked the other one cuz i like the Triton in black and the 5.4L in red. I was kinda leaning towards this combo since the start, but i had to see both pics side by side to decide. Your pic worked fine for me to decide, i just needed a rough idea cuz it was hard to picture the difference in my head. I appreciate your help, i'll post pics when i get it finished, i'm getting the paint tomorrow. Anyway, i have photoshop too, except for i can't figure out how to get it off the disc. LoL. My friend got it for me, but it needs a password or something and i can't figure out how to crack it. Not too good at that stuff yet with installing new programs that need a registration number.

 

Harley#356, Here is what you need. This is the registration number. Type in PWW600R7105467-948 That will work if you are using photoshop 6. Glad to help.

 

thanks GASGUZZLER007, i'll try that out tonight, gotta paint my intake cover now.

 

Aight, i'm done it...well almost. I still gotta touch up some spots 2morrow on the letters to even out the edges, but it's practically done. Now i just need to know whether or not i should clearcoat. I guess it couldn't hurt. Only pain would be remasking, but i taped a plastic bag around most of it so it wasn't that bad to do. Well thanks for your help, (geez, i sure did ask enough questions about this little paint mod. LoL) But i wanted to make sure it turned out right the 1st time. Here's a few pics of how it turned out. Next up- Brake calipers. but 1st i gotta find silver high temp paint, can't find it at pepboys, i'll probably have to go to till paint (automotive paint shop). Have you done yours yet RockPick? I'm sure i'll have some more questions. LoL ;-)

Hey, i wonder where that sticker on the left came from? LoL






not the best pics but i'll post one when i get it back on the truck. I'll probably clear coat it 2morrow, and put it back on monday or tuesday. I wanna make sure its completely dry before i put it back on just for me to drive somewhere and dirt stick to it or the paint melt cuz black truck plus its so friggin hot and humid here.. (90 something and mega humid today...it sucks. I only like this weather for bike riding suprisingly

 

looks great!!

 

thanks, now i wanna find something else to paint (besides calipers). I was thinking about doing flames somewhere under the hood, but i'm probably not gonna cuz it would be too much work. But you should see my trash can. LoL, I flamed that (black w/ red flames) and it looks like i bought it that way. If anybody even cares, i'll post a pic of it someday if i have time.


*edit* hey, i just thought of something, since this summer i have to take all the tool boxes off of my work truck to fix some minor surface rust on the bed rails, and fix the stake pocket that i broke from putting too many ladders and 16 footers up there. I will probably be repainting the white side boxes. Maybe i'll do a ghost flame on those to match the blue on the truck. LoL, i wonder how that would look.

 

THat looks great, I wanna see that trashcan, if you have anypics doin it would be great, i'm 16 and i wanna do that kinda stuff, only on cars!

 

LLoverCrazyJay, email me and i'll send a pic and how i did it. (joshv_85@yahoo.com)

 

i want to see a pic of this trashcan as well . Email me at amrant@yahoo.com

 

well since 2 people wanna c the trashcan, i just uploaded it on here. Quicker than yahoo's attachments and i won't have to send it twice now. ANyway, sorry bout the quality of the pic, i just went upstairs snapped one and uploaded it. Didn't feel like redoing it over again, its too hot and humid out. LoL . Anyway, I just sanded down the trash can, primered it, sprayed it with gloss black paint. Next day i masked it all out (ALOT of tape), drew on the flames with a sharpie, cut em out with a hobby knife, and did 4 coats of red spray paint about 5 minutes apart, and peeled the masking tape off while the paint was still wet some. Not bad for my 1st flame job, but that's mostly cuz for about a month all i've been doing is practicing drawing flame patterns on anything that's near when i get bored or can't sleep cuz there is a trick to making it look decent. There's a few defects in it but i'm gettin better (i can fade the colors now! LoL). Next up is the tool boxes on my 85. Gotta repaint em white anyway cuz they are getting nasty, so i might as well try out my flame painting skills on the boxes (gonna do white box with light blue flame so it matches the truck) . And i'm also gonna repaint the rear bumper, so i might do a tribal looking thing on that too (like silver bumper and gray tribal flame so its ghosty) well, that's enough rambling for now, maybe someday i'll get the hang of it enough to flame a whole vehicle but that won't be for a while.

(the flame on the left side looks kinda like the one on the 02 HD's)

next time i'll put a little more effort into it (such as more flames for the sized area), but i just wanted to do this one quick so i could see how it would turn out.

If you try a flame job Llover, post pics so i can see how it turned out.
