Request for AAR Magnum please

[armadillo]

Photoshop Guru's, all I want for Christmas is to see what my Cool Vanilla Magnum would look like with a AAR strobe stripe / or a variation of it like the green Magnum has. Photos of my Magnum - green AAR Cuda and the green Magnum with the variation strobe




Thanks for any help

My same idea.....I have trying my "best" to get a pic to look right. I am not so hot with the PS.
I would like to get something close to be able to SHOW a stripe guy what I am looking for.

what I wanna know is where to find the hood on that magnum. Thats the best one I've seen.
I'll whoop up a doodle...

Thanks Grinner I am also looking for the hood, everything Ive seen so far is too mild.

[grinner]

I probly shulda added more dashes. I wuz lookin at the magnum more than the cuda.

[armadillo]

Grinner, Thanks .. That is very cool - I know that took some time and effort,

I have finished with the shave job so no more side molding or Hemi badge.

Yea, I am looking at aftermarket hoods -something with a cool scoop- hood will be painted black as the AAR cars were, and the grill done similar to the green magnum photo, (blacked out split the same way)I am working on getting a price together on the grill. No big rush, got to get my brake calipers red, and a few other details. I really like the 70 Cuda AAR cars and thought this would be a cool retro look.

dude, I almost shaved that stuff in photoshop but I didn't wanna step on toes.
I bet it looks cleeaann, man.
I'm looking for a scooped hood too.
The one you pictured is by far the coolest I've seen. I wanna find that one.

I'm waiting to do all paint at one swoop. Goona shave ther roof rack, get some ground effects and the scooped hood. I first wanted a ghost flame job but now that the car has revealed it's personality, I see it wants to just be completely blacked out. I'm down with that.
Man, you shulda seen me out there washin it in 19 degree weather this mornin.
I put hot water in a bucket and used a rag FROM the bucket. The steam off the car was worth takin a picture.
I gotta get a dang digital camera one of these days.
Anyway, the pearl over the black is simply the prettiest color I have ever seen on a ride.
I can't wash it enough. I'll have a coat of paint off by summer at this rate.

Grinner,
what do you think of the grill idea, the guy I'm working with on this wants to try a grill with no bars at all, like the 300C only blacked out, I'll take a front/side shot of the car maybe you can help me decide which one will look best. I'll get the photo tomorow.

[grinner]

I think anythink different is pretty cool. Anything different that looks great just kicks ass.
IN this case, the blacj mesh contrast on white will scream "look out!" and will add a clean euro look while adding more than a hint of muscle. Top and bottom, it'll look really nice.
I'm gopnna go for the billet grill, I think. Still gonna spray it black bit I love the look on those lower vents. I dunno how well paint will stick to it but I imagine a good sandin' will do fine.
I tall ya, the more I look at those side pipes on the green one you pictured, the more I'm wantin em. Freakin tuff lookin. Got a photo of the back?
Just wondering what the rear valence looks like with no pipage.

[armadillo]

Grinner, I'll post rear photo and front /side short tomorrow.

[grinner]

added a black hood w/a scoop, a black top to match and shaved what needed shavin.

plum phat

this wuz just a wild hair
would look better as one smooth stream of black as far as the windows but this is actually how it would look unless you carried the black paint out to taper off the offset.
