Photoshop request

[WBray]

Hi Guys
Is anyone on here good with the old photoshop and able to do me a favour please?
I am considering getting my alloys refurbed next month or month after as one is starting to show its age and have a couple of ideas, could someone chop my wheel colours for me? As I am stuck with three possible Ideas;

-Anthracite/gun metal
-Black
-Black with a silver rim/lip

Hopefully this picture will be ok? or would a proper side on view be better?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

The silver edge is a bit messy but it gives an idea. You may also want to consider satin black.

Thanks edd
how much difference is there between black and satin black?
cheers

 

[WBray]

just thought as well can you powder coat satin black? as gettin them powdercoated.

 

[Copperman05]

Yes mine are powder coated satin black, will get you a picture. I prefer it to the super shiny black gloss. I think satin black with silver edge would look great. Issue you have is a turned edge will only have a thin lacquer on it and after curbing water can ingress and ruin the finish. Perhaps ok for a show car but less so for daily driver. Alternative may be to paint edge silver?

Not mine but done by Lepson's who also did my wheel in satin.

Do Subaru wheels fit a 944 or is the photo as an example of paint finish?

That Satin black alloy does look sweet! Could be an idea with the painted edge but would that make much difference anyway should the allow be curbed anyway?

I think I am swaying towards the anthracite/gun metal though the more I look at it.

Cheers for the help though mate really appreciate the photoshoping!

Black works best for me, ties in with the decals

Iv got a set off wheels Iv wondered about changing colour, if its not 2 much trouble.

That was my original thought to tie in with the decals but they do make the wheels look really small (not that they arnt small anyway)

In the pic sliver looks better, but in the flesh I think black, satin black will look more rubber shade.

What tires you got? If they got nice graphics you could paint them cream?

 

[Copperman05]

I agree re black and decals.

You certainly do can you do them for me on Project 944

I am thinking Gloss Black wheels on the car.. Could you use your magic mouse to do this so I can see what it looks like. Thanks.. I am very good at making pictures smaller...... I can even make them disapear... don't ask where they have gone [&:]

I know of a VW guy who has a set of Design 90's that need painting the ones on Des's car are way too good to paint but my wife does not like her Cup 1's on her Cab so I am thinking of putting these on her's and me buying the VW guys 90's painting them anyway and thought hmmm gloss black might look nice..
