How'd you do that with the engine showing through the hood? I've seen that before but I don't know how it's done....

one picture with hood up and same angle (preferably with a tripod) with the hood down

in photoshop you use the opacity slider to make the hood down shot opacity percentage low

This is true. You have to make a mask for the hood though. If not the one with the hood up will show the hood in front of the windshield

Tooks some more pics of it Sunday.

Because Lambo doors are not cool anymore. It's not 2002, The Fast and the Furious is over, and you'll be flamed and called a ricer. Also, they are a pain in the ass to use daily from what I've heard. Please don't spoil your very nice car with Lambo doors.

Haven't you seen this picture yet?
