Photoshop help please

[MiniMike]

Can any of you artist show me an EB/White Cooper S with white bonnet stripes, the driving lights and the black mesh grilles from the aero kit? I've tentatively ordered these bits for my S that was loaded on the Jingu maru today.

Love to see if I'm maiing any mistakes BEFORE I have the work done.

Thanks everyone!

MiniMike,
If you can direct me to a photo of the grill you want I can do the work for you.

minimott,

Can you just use the grill from the scoop under the license plate. It's close enough to the pattern from the aero kit. The black mesh grill fills the spaces that have body colored slats in the S.

I played with doing that part in Paint Shop Pro; it's adding the fog lights that escpaes me.

MiniMike,
What is the URL where the photo can be found? I don't know the photo that you're talking about and I need to download it in order to do the Photoshop work.

Thanks.

Wow, is Mini2 something, or what?

Would I be piggish if I wondered aloud if you could make it Electric Blue?

Thanks guys!

[minimott]

MiniMike,
No, you wouldn't be piggish to ask for an EB one since you asked for that in the FIRST place. Duh. It's obviously a Monday for my brain.

Mini2 saved my life! I love this site.

P.S. If you do get your car on June 2nd, then that was the car I was supposed to get because it's my birthday! I don't know which is more depressing: not getting my car when I wanted or turning 30. Sigh.

[MiniMike]

Thanks a lot. Looks great, right?

If it's any consolation to you, the boat is just loading today, so I doubt I'll have it on 6/2. What's worse is, I'm not getting my MINI 'til I'm 43!!

But I WILL be acting like I'm 18 when I get the car.

Thanks again!

That does look good !!

Hey -- thanks much for the picture of the Dark Silver S w/stripes -- I've been trying to decide on those, and hadn't been able to scare up a decent picture yet. Not that I've decided now, but it helps...

...meanwhile, the rallye lights go so well with the bonnet stripes -- but I'm loathe to shell out that much cash for something that's more or less decorative only. I'm already getting xenons and fog lights; will rallye lights actually be useful? (I do drive a lot in dark rural areas).

Any thoughts -- esp from those who've actually tried this set-up in the MINI! -- would be appreciated...

OMG....... monsta, where DO you get those photo's. Thats the first photo of an aerokitted S I've seen......drool!!!. I can see finding another contract is going to become necessary very soon........thats gorgeous, even in the one Cooper S colour I'm really not taken with.

WOW.......thanks again for the photo, and that photoshop work is sensational too.

[MiniMike]

I'll admit; I'm getting the lights for the looks first and the extra light second. I live in an area with twisty roads with great elevation changes, so I'm sure I'll enjoy whatever extra light they throw out.

I also don't mind running up the tab a bit at my dealer. They're one of the few selling cars at list WITHOUT adding anything else. So if I'm going to spend money anywhere, I'm glad to spend it at Westchester MINI with Lori!

Minimike where are you buying your car from.Is it in ny or long island.

[MiniMike]

I'm getting my car from Westchester MINI, from Lori, the Miniqueen.
