Photoshop help

I want to black out (in vinyl) the indented section on the lower section of the bumper between the two exhaust finishers. Can someone photoshop this for me?

No not my car.

Thanks.

Nice work Zac.
I like it. Gives it a sporty look. Probably will use flat black BBQ paint on the exhaust finishers too.

Appreciate your help.

Nice drop too.

Wish they made a decent set of coilovers for my car.

That's nice too but I'm worried the vinyl will melt near the exhaust cutouts.

If the vinyl would melt, wouldn't the plastic bumper?

I know they all look good so take your time on which you like best:



I like how the fluidity accentuates the silver from the logo and on the mid bumper

If the vinyl melted you would have other issues.

Mask off the area you like, get some plastidip and spray 5-6 thin coats of it (the more coats the easier it is to remove) and see if you like the look, or if there is anything you would change. Rustoleum has a similar product and has it in dark gray As does Duplicolor

If you have the option to use vinyl...use vinyl. It looks about 1000x better than plastidip, wont fade and will be more durable. Also, I'm assuming the tips on the Genesis aren't really connected to the exhaust pipe like most manufacturers (don't quote me), if they are the vinyl wont melt around the tips.

I've got a buddy who's new Viper is completely wrapped and his hasn't had any issues.
