Right, some of you may or may not know that after seeing DanDiesels wheels on his Ibiza at Spring GTI i decided i want some for my MK7.
Only thing is, i want the centre of the wheels (where Dan's are grey) to be the same colour as my car (Cornflour Blue).
I really want to see what it would look like first before i part with the cash etc etc.
I have pics of the wheel and of my car the a similar angle.
Now, i am as crap as they come when it comes to Photoshop and from what i can see some people on here are top with it.
Can you see where this is going? lol
Really, i just want to know if someone had some spare time on their hands, could they possibly do that for me? sorry, sounds a bit cheeky lol, but i want to start making my car look different! lol.
Thanks
Chris

Post the pics up mate. I'll have a crack. I mean I'm not great on the shop, but I'll give it a go, if not I'm sure someone else will.

I have higher res versions of the following images if they are needed.
But it will have to be this eve as they are at home.
Thanks

Here we go. Best I could do with the low res. First time I've really tried recolouring wheels so someone else may be able to do better.

wow wow wow! I love it all!!!
lol, i dunno if i would be able to do the lights for real, but they look kool!
Also, looks good lowered as well!
My list of things to do are as follows:
1 - Spoiler - I have got one, had to glue it back together, just needs spraying and fitting.
2 - VW Badge - Got another one, just need to spray it black.
3 - Wheels - See above! lol
4 - Strut Brace - (May come before the wheels)
5 - New springs - Lowered 30mm all round!
Thank you again Tom for that! looks kewl!!
Wish i could use photoshop like that!
