Default Photoshop Request

Ok well in the murdered out thread it was suggested that I murder out my truck. I've thought about it but never really considered it seriously. But lately I've been getting bored with the truck and the way I've been going the next step is to lift my truck and that's pretty expensive and I got married this year so my truck budget is cut drastically lol. I'm thinking that this could be a relatively cheap way to modify the appearance of my dak. I was just wondering if anyone on here has the photoshop ability that I seem to lack? Anyone wanna black out all my chrome so I can see what it looks like?

Does all the chrome include the bullbar and the running boards?

Very nice truck! I like it. You could get some of these headlights, the Halo's... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2005-...=p4506.c0.m245

Unless you wanna black your headlights out with some VHT nite shade.

Getting a lift would be sweet too, you thinking about getting a 3" body lift or doing suspension?

This Dakota has the TRX package too. Here's the link...check it out...I love his truck... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3343062 he had a chrome grill and painted it himself with "Dupont car matched paint" and he painted his fender flares too!

After looking at that truck compared to yours I think that you can get a pretty good idea of what it'd look like all blacked out. I think you'd like it, the murdered out look is sweet. Plus I'm not sure how good it'd turn out on Photoshop, I think checkin out that CarDomain link would be best for you overall unless someone on here has mad Photoshop skills cuz I don't lol sorry.

Here is what I came up with. I hope it tells you what you wanted to know. I blacked out the wheels, the chrome, and tinted the windows.

Wow, nice job! I'd definitely black it out, it looks sweet!

I darkened them to the darkest tint legal where I live, I guess not all states have the same laws though... I could make them darker.

Thanks, it was an easy picture to work with... the lighting was good and there wasn't too much glare.
