Photoshop experts?

Can anyone photoshop the interior of a car and paint the gauge cluster surround and the radio surround to match the color of my car? I am going to have reverse glow gauges as well. does anyone think this would look good? Just wandering and wanting to expermint to try somthing different. I have an 1985 GSL if it helps.

Here's a pic of my car.

Iotus-
Where did you get that steering wheel? It looks badass. You've got the same color of car, what color (if any) would you recomend detailing the dash in?

I'm doing silver, gray and black.

my mods list (Some done, some yet to do):

1) Bottom half of dash painted black
2) Black/grey turboII seats
3) Grant Evolution shift **** (coming in about a week)
4) Grant Evolution GT Steer wheel
5) Gunmetal painted center console (soon)
6) Blue LED/neon interior lighting

Exterior color may look good, but it also may look too flashy. I'm more for a subtle look.

I would say for you, silver and gray or silver and black would look good! Just dont copy my interior exactly and i wont get too jelous of you ;-)

Hehe its all good man. PM me if you want any specifics on stuff i've done or stuff i'd reccomend doing.

To get back to the orginal question: yes, i can photoshop your car to be a diffrent color. Assuming your gagues are the same as ioTus's, here's what they would look like in your car's color.

just your console:



both the console and the black around the gagues:



for kicks with a yellow wheel:



no comments on the pooie photoshoping because I spent about 10 minutes on all three


... I hope that this is what you meant by your orginal post

thanks for the info ioTus!!

It look great but a little too modern. I think for my 79 I'll stick with the one Gamble sold me.

Your car does look awesome!!
