Default Photochop request....pretty please

Hey Pendragon (or anyone willing to help), if you get a chance can you do me a huge favor? I am thinking of trying something new and different.

If you could chop these with black centers (same polished lip):

Onto this:

Or this:

If you want you can send it to my e-mail niphilli@vt.edu

Thanks a bazillion!

-Nick

Hey Thanks man,
I know the pic you had to work with was not very good. I will try and get a higher res pic.

If you could blackout the entire center of the wheel (leve polished center cap, bolts & lip).

This site is great.

I haven't chopped in awhile, so I did that color scheme on rim's that you have on the Zo6 right now. Is this the look you were trying to get?

Please don't attempt that in real life. Horrid.

I think he means the entire wheel, except leave the polished lip.
That means spokes black too.

Hrm, 6 spokes bad. What you have is very good! Don't mess with perfection!

Thanks guys....

Yep I mean the whole wheel center piece like this:



I liked the wheels I had but they turned out to be JUNK! I will post more about my ordeal as soon as my money is returned free and clear.

For now I am looking into other manufacturers.

These were I-Forged Aero's right? I thought they were
good. Don't a few people have these wheels?

If you don't wanna give details, I understand.

I will most definately post the details as soon as I have my money back free and clear. But to answer your question, yes a few people have these wheels, and yes most people have problems with them in one way or another

Nick, I am begging you not to put those wheels on your Z. Check out Boyd Coddington rims, they have some sweet designs but a little expensive.
