Opinions needed again. Photoshop wanted.

I sent you a PM.

All black dude, and flat, not shiny. I wish you could have seen Scott Harness' IronMan. He has powdercoated black rims and they look great, very, very tough. I would either find a rim you like and paint it or powder coat it, or go with the Teflon coated Mojaves. I think they would look sweet on an IronMan. But I don't know if AR has the specs you want.

Thanks man. How much does a photshop or competitor (if worth it) run these days? I have never priced before. Tried or trying to find it online for free, oops. Yeah I really want to get rid of that tint.

So flat black? I like. White is just almost unheard of. Easily dirty but different. Would you go all black or throw in a little chrome/white or machined silver into the rim, via lip/spoke in a small amount.

solid color is definitely the way to go... personally id go with black rims.. i dont know what look youre going for exactly.. but i like the look of steel rockcrawler rims.. theyre hideous.. but in that i can drive over anything sorta way that is dead sexy on a lifted VX, other than that id say something simple would be best

edit..
heres a quick photoshop of what id like to do if i had a lifted ironman.. the rims are ar dominators w/ teflon... dont know if they make them for the VX but thats the look id go for

Thanks guys.

Yeah having Photoshop is an obvious plus. Cant wait to mess around with it. So both agree to ditch the tint? When I replace ill go limo no doubt.

Im thinking about repainting the bolts to white anyways. Any opinions on that? Going to nite shade the side markers and maybe the tail light or mulligan a LDUB style tail.

To me, I think the simpler mods look best. I go for a clean, no bling, non cluttered look. But that's just me.

Less is more.

i would go black tint all the way.. you should be able to take all the tint off no problem, only thing to be weary of is make sure u dont scratch the defroster lines on the rear window or your defroster wont work anymore..

to tint your side markers i would use car model spray on tint.. thats what i used and it has worked beautifully.. and had almost zero effect on the visibility of the lights... either way you should cut off the raised lettering using an x-acto knife then sand down with fine (300) grit sandpaper until its smooth.. then step to 1000 grit until its really nice and smooth, then paint with whatever you decide, makes a smoother look

[JHarris1385]

Yeah I had a black I would go stealth all black and clear like your doing a great job of. But since I have all this contrast to begin with I figure why not play with it some more and take it toyish.

ETL; thanks for the spray advice. I will probably do this tomorrow. Did you get your paint at a hobby store or does wall mart carry that?

[etlsport]

yea i got it at hobbytownusa... its made by modelmaster.. i dunno if walmart would have it or not

OR, you could just go ballz out and sand down like Etl said, and then prime and spray completely black 2 or 3 coats, remove the bulbs and good bye side markers. That's what I did and I love it...
