Nice Car! I really like the RS wheels, I wish they came in a 17" option.

Mark,

thanks,
I only really needed the upgrade since I am doing wrx brakes, I actually kinda prefer the 16's since we go to the snow alot and I didnt like the selection ( or price ) of decent tires for snow w 17's .
That is my nice side, the passenger side fender is squashed and I am still trying to find a burgandy replacement for it ( I may just break down and get one and have it painted )

It still looks pretty cool though

that and I didnt want my garbage cans to grab to much attention :P

Explain to us how to do it in photoshop please!

It makes your car look crazy :)

Did you use the lasso to select the car then inverse it and blur the rest?

ok,


I took the orig image and duplicated it
go to the new layer and go filter -> extract (ps7) or image -> extract ( ps6 )

use the "marker" and click smart highlighting and draw a line around the outside edge of your object, once done, click the little paint bucket ( within the extract window ) and fill the inside of your outline, when done, use preview to see your extraction, if its ok, click ok

go back to the base layer and choose the effect you would like, on this one I did a gausian (sp?) blur by 3 pix, you can do whatever here, alter colors or brightness etc.

thats all there is too it, and it makes the car really stand out alot in pics

if this was confusing feel free to ask ?? 's
