hey guys this a real rough chop but after i did it the spoiuler grew on me brings back muscle car memories.tell me what u think

...no

ya my gf said the same thing
stole the idea from a superbird just figured i'd play with it

sell your car now, before you ruin it

i kinda like it but i was just playin i wouldn't do it.
i don't think it looks all to bad but hey to each his own

hahahahahahahahhahah

Yeah, no. Not sure why you would think that looks good, it barely looked good on the Superbirds. Although it was functional on those cars, but it was so tall to clear the trunk lid.

heres another one i did using the chop downlinx did for me

and another with a scoop but it looks really crappy bear with me i'm still learning

that looks so bad man

Tips:

Find a better picture of the hoodscoop at an angle that matches your picture. The one you used is blurrier than your pic. Try matching the color too (In this case, select the scoop layer and adjust the brightness/contrast)

For the spoiler, choose the eraser tool, set the hardness to 0 and carefully go along the edge of the spoiler to get rid of that white outline.
Also, try leaning how to use the dodge and burn tools on the spoiler to make it look more realistic.

dude, NO!!

That's the first thing that came to mind. At least there'd be no obstruction with your view in the rear window.

For a first chop, not bad, keep at it and you'll be able to judge and manipulate the angles and match colors better. For idea...um.....not bad for a chop, just don't do it

Another way to get rid of the white edges of the spoiler: hold down the "ctrl" key and click the layer it's on. it will make a selection of all the objects on that layer. go to "select" from the pull downs, "modify" - "contract" type in 1 or 2 for the pixels, click "ok". go back to "select" - "inverse" this does just that, it selects the opposite of what you previously selected which will include the white edges. Then just hit "delete" and DAH TAH! Another way would be to turn the "preserve transparency" on and just fill it in with black

Your car is not a muscle car, you need to realize this.

True dat. As far as the pic, edges look cleaner and looks alot better not sitting up as high. With it like that it doesn't seem much different then those park benches some people put on.

I dont mind that spoiler at all. It's big but it's not bulky!

i wanna give credit where credit is due the chops i have been doing are a combination between the chops of a paintjob coolgraffix and downlinx did for me.i have just been changing them up to what i like.but without their help i prob wouldn't have started.i will post some new ones tomorrow i am working on a custom hood now
coolgraffix thanks for all the tips they have been helping.and ya the spoiler is starting to grown on me.

well i finished the hood before i went to bed so here it is.
the scoop is hard to see but itis off a plymouth superbee
i think it goes good with the spoiler

you have to look close to see the scoop though .

your welcome try messing around with the image adjustments to lighten up the black, that'll show more detail. either the balance/contrast or the curves. Alot of times what I'll do is if I want to show it off but feel it may be too dark, I'll switch it to a gray or some other light color. That's what I did with the bumper idea for my car I chopped.

here is one a lil brighter to show off the hood scoop

here is one with an airgrabber scoop i put it right above the throttle body for maximum airflow and when the air grabber was closed it would be a good sleeper.



this is what the scoop looks like

dude, just buy a MOPAR!

been there done that i just wanna have some a fun and be different. at least noone else would ever have on elike this
