Photoshop Request.

We'll start with the tough one:

Could someone put a gloss on the flat bumper bar so it looks body-color?


For an easier challenge, make the flat black bar body color on a blue and white BRZ:





Thanks.

Thanks. Care to try your hand at the White one?

I'm kicking around some ideas with the black one. A couple people on another forum wanted to see the end result, so I put up the blue and white as more examples.

sigh....ok for those thinking of color matching your BRZ mustache. Stop. It wont look good. There is a definitive contrast of the grill and the rest of the bumper having it grey/black. Because the grill is embossed, color matching would make it look awkward because of the indentation.

What you want to to is FILL IN the embossed sections and smoothen them out to make it seamless. Then you can color match so the colors flow across the entire frontal section.

This is what you want to do, trust me. Example.

Those are nice. Too bad it'd take more than a little bit of paint to do that.

After seeing it the other way, I think I like it better the way it is. Maybe it's my mind playing tricks on me, but IMO, I say leave it.

I wasn't to happy about the "mustache" either... then I saw the BRZ in person, and honestly it is pretty sweet... it looks better in person than in pics.
