Photoshoped idea of Race bug.

Ok i am sure most of you guys have seen this photo in the General section of the GL web site. I took it and photoshopped it to fit the idea of what i am going for in my bug body for my project.

Before


After 4 in body section off the bottom and 2 inches chopped off the top. Notice the way that i did the drop the van in the background got a free 4 in drop. That was a pleasent suprize. I did a gausin blur on the back ground to make it look more like a artistic photo. Let me know what you think.



things to look for when compairing the two photos.
Look at the red front fender
look at the bottom of the blue fender in the back.
blue front wheel
removed blue paint from the quarter pannel

it is amazing to me how much it looks like a Porsche when you chop the top and drop the body. Cool thing is it still looks more like a bug.
