Default Need Photoshop Skillz...

Just wondered if any of you with PS skills could give me a black hoodscoop and spoiler. I did one but since I have the skillz of a five year old in PS...let's just say it didn't turn out right...any attempts would be welcome

I actually think that your yellow stang would look nice and stand out more if you painted the Hood Scoop black ..and then put a black stripe coming from the hood scoop to the front of the hood. A stripe like this one...http://www.graphic-express.com/ford_n502-s2.htm

Dont bother painting the spoiler black.....that would look weird..leave that for the Mach 1's...

I had thought about that but I like the insert with the pinstripe around it...like this...


and I HAVE to get the spoiler painted since that was the one part I originally wanted done

Don't paint it, check e-bay, i was on there earlier, and theres some guy that sells spoilers, i'm sure you can pm him and see if he has a Black spoiler in stock. Last i saw it was like 100 buck with a few dollars shipping, and it's painted...all you would have to do put it on...i'll look for a link for ya

You will like the spoiler painted black.I had mine done a couple of months ago.Instead of the flat black like the Mach's I went with gloss black to match my wheels.I don't even think the DSG Mach's have a black spoiler but I could be wrong.

I have a friend who runs a body shop here so I'm hoping to get a good deal on it all. Just out of curiosity, is there any hidden problems I should be aware of taking the hood scoop off? I'm assuming that I should just have to remove the hood liner and remove whatever fasteners are holding it on...

Pretty much except I want to get everything painted instead of sticking more vinyl on the car...especially if I can get it all done for a good price! I want to paint the spoiler, hood scoop, fuel door, back bumper valence and letters and the area in front of the spoiler...kinda cut down on some of the yellow!!! After that it'll be time for black DD Bullets or FR500's...

I thought about buying it off you, but I want to go with paint instead. I'm really liking the way that looks!

the scoop is easy to remove. just make sure to clean underneath when you take it off.

Friend + body shop = good price...plus the vinyl looks a little cheesy IMHO...

Is it just nuts and bolts holding it on?
