Here's a little challenge for all of you masters of retouching.

can you take this:



and use your magic on it to present me with 2 new pictures, one with the wheels in anthracite and the other with the wheels in black.

I'm planing on keeping my wheels, but considering getting them professionally repainted, in suprise suprise, either black or anthracite, so I'm looking for some visual mock up to see wether to make the change, or keep em silver.

thanks a million.

I have the same wheels, they look fantastic on the scooby!

I was thinking about having them re-furbed in white recently?

Like the look of the anthracite though.....

Anyone want to do em in white?

Cheers

They look alright. Mate of mine has white comopomotives on his WRX and they look ok, even when dirty, gives the real 'rally' look

Oi! no!!!! it's called blackbeast for a reason you know

In my defence, the car was jet washed either that morning or the night before, and my jetwashing skills speak for themselves!

you think it's dirty in those pics, you want to see it at the moment, it could be called the grey with mud colored streaks beast, but that's a bit of a mouthfull!

That was Brands hatch last year, the road going in to the cetre area was full of mud, the only way in with out mud splashes was via helicopter.

The only way out was full opposite lock & full throtle, well thats how I escaped much to the amusement of my eldest 2 kids.
