Paint scheme for 6th Gen
I saw a pic of a black and red Cadillac CTS-V Speed World Challenge car and I wondered what it would look like on a black Maxima, since they are in the same class of car. If someone can photoshop this red scheme which is the middle area and the middle area of the roof. All of the other red and writing would not be included.
Here are a couple of pics:
Use this pic to photoshop

Yes, don't touch the bumper, start on the hood. Red between the center indents and then up over the hood.
Where is that new guy who was photoshoping the rear fins on your car. That guy can photoshop!
Oh yeah, nice pic of you pushing the Max to the max.

By the way, note the hood vents in the Caddy. This may be an idea for a Maxima hood.

Illanoiz is the great photochopper.
Joe: Nice job. If you can narrow the paint scheme to conform with the outside edge of the grill, it would be a bit more accurate and better looking. in other words, narrow the red at the front of the hood, and there should be no red on the top of the bumper, but below the grill it should be in line with it, tapering inward slightly as you go lower down.

Okay, I am liking pic#2, pic#3 in the original series. Once he added the break in the bumper paint I didn't like those as much.
Nice job on the photochoping guys. I gotta learn how to do that.

Lving here in cali i see a lot of Ricer cars that have this done..
ONce again i love your setup the way it is... IE: red trim around grill... red rims trim... but i think that if u add paint scheme it will TOTALLY look over done...

Well, it never hurts to photoshop and get opinions. Im leaning towards not doing the scheme. I saw that Caddy with the paint scheme and thought it looked pretty cool.

but still, I'd rather put the money into performance stuff, but that's just me. I don't like to stand out, except being out in front.

Once my students leave on school break for 2 weeks in late September, my car is going in the paint shop to have my front bumper, hood reshot in Red Opulence and the roof between the chrome strips painted Onyx Black...
Anyone want to photoshop that for me PLEASE!!!
