Nice one Tempy, I think the VXR8 would look great with black wheels, any chance you could whip that up?

Shazzam!



I think that looks quite nice.

[RoastBeef]

Tempy, can you make it pink with yellow wheels?

[Tempy]

I can, but you gotta ask yourself, why would you want to?

[Tempy]

Sod it, lets have a look

Jeez big Nige, this is a car forum mate, not really the place to be 'Coming Out'..

Must feel good after all those years in the closet, eh!

Had a look at the Karma colour when we were in Oz... it is a nice colour as well..

Not a fan of white cars - reminds me too much of the 80's, and that Monaro looks like an unpainted Airfix kit! And shirley they're 100 times worse to keep clean than black cars

They are worse to keep clean......


....and don't call me shirley.

As there was a lot of interest in White Monaro, I thought I would share what never happened. The last run of 75 HSV Coupes in May 2006 were considered as special builds and we wanted to do them in White. We considered 'Walkinshaw' logos on the side of the car similar to a Porsche but we decided against it as stickers don't last long in good condition. It was going to cost too much to do white as a special paint job through the Holden paint shop and no one wanted the disruption to the launch of VE so we canned the idea. White does look good though. Orders for white LS3 HSV VEs in Australia are going well, White is the new Black I am told.

Owned both Black and White cars in the past, don't agree.. Black is by far the worst to keep clean, shows the dirt in the winter & the dust in summer, can't win...

And yes, White is the new Black, (except for wheels of course, where Black is the new Silver!!!!)..

Tempy I'm impressed with the colour changes, I'm a PhotoShop numpty, is that what you use?

Any chance of seeing what mine would look like with black wheels? (they need refurb, I'm thinking black centres with chrome rim)
Either that or tell me how to do it?



Cheers
Tim

ETA damn, uncle Dave site has gone again. Pic will appear on 1st May...

Thanks Tim, yeah I use photoshop. I'm no expert, I got the tutorial from this site, which is pretty rubbish, but the colour changing tutorial works well. Click on "colour change" on the left.

Happy to do it if you can get me a good picture. Can you not host it anywhere else? Like photobucket?
