new paint...

[ilikepoultry]

i am starting to look to see if i might want to try a different color
i spent a few hours trying to get paint.net to change the color of a picture of my car

the picture i came up with wasn't exactly a GREAT color change, but it looked pretty sweet

i'll post it up when photobucket's back up

anyway
i was wondering if anyone had a way to do something similar?
or any ideas what color to get it painted?
i love the black, but maybe something else might hit me, so to speak

black on it would look sweet

what is not working

this looks pretty badazz

paint.net... you install and run
then open a file and play

taillight mod completed : 5:34 AM
start : 7:45 PM

throw-out bearing will hopefully be finished by the end of the day
starting on that around 8 or 9

front end after a little paint


i'm still doing the throw-out bearing
it should be done tonight and then the ball joint'll get done tomorrow, if napa actually gets me the part
they forgot to call chicago to get it shipped up, so they're supposedly having a company pickup truck personally coming up to drop it off - we'll see - i doubt it
(they said it would be here today and i bought it on monday - apparantly, their van from chi-town comes on tuesdays and thursdays... or so i have been told)

back-end






i thought it added a little...
comments/suggestions welcome

i was debating between new color and black - i'm thinking staying with black, but i'm not sure yet
if i stay with black, i was thinking white slicers and maybe painting the stripe around the car white... where the plus had black, i believe... the stripe in the body panels - above the TAURUS SHO on the side

that's the pic of my car in my sig
then the background removed
then switched to black-and white
then invert colors

idk - i thought i might share it
it was me attempting to get my car to be white, and it didn't turn out quite as planned

the ambers are hard to come by - in my experience, and they look really nice... also they're my turn signals, and i cannot paint over them or i could face a very large ticket
