It was kind of spontaneous that I decided to go to a car show today... But since I had already washed the car yesterday, and detailed it this morning, I figured why not.. It was the second show I've ever put my car in, and the first time I ever won a trophy. I beat a Porsche and an MG to take first place in the Import Tuner category. Yes, I am aware that Cavaliers are not imports, but it apparently qualified because of the "tuner" portion and there was no Domestic Tuner catagory..
I'm pretty happy about it. It's been a long hard road but the car is starting to come together and get noticed now.
Congrats man, carl looks amazing...

There are probably many ways to do this, but how I do it:
Create a new layer above your image layer. Make sure the new layer is selected. Use the square selection tool and select the area that you want to draw a border around. Go to select > Modify > Border. Choose how big you want the border, then use the fill tool to color it in.
Congrats, Gary! Your car is looking great!

your car is bad a$$.. good luck in future shows bro!
i've never been a huge fan of your car, ill be honest
i think you need to tie the hood in better because its really the only black thing besides your headlights
ur cav is the only one i've ever liked white rims on. great looking car and congrats on the award

Fair enough
I've been looking into a few options to put more carbon fiber throughout the car.. but i'm not sure what, if anything, i'm going to do yet though.
thats cool, as long as it gets more tied it cuz its just kinda there right now
oh and congrats on the trophy
