the computer has let me down big time

i had finished my car (drag slicks, fully stickered and pearlescent paint, carbon bonnet and mirrors) saved it, and went to bed. woke up to find all my music, piccies, and 'chops gone. system restore cant help me, and im giving up

so i will try again, but in a looonng time lol when i can be bothered to re-do it.

i still wanna see you effort though

thats more than annoying mate

i will put my effort so far up to see what you think, then maybe i'll add to it a bit
once i had got this far someone showed me the same mazda shopped almost the same as mine. rather annoying. but just so people know i didnt take his ideas



let me know of any thoughts anyone has, and any other ideas you have

that is pretty good mate, i like the spoiler i think it suits quite well. how about a front mount intercooler?

yea i was thinking maybe a front mount intercooler. i think im going to play with the idea of widening the arches too. bit more of a muscle look.

Your front tyre has a bit of an issue with the arch? Looks fancy tho

_________________

yea i noticed that the arch needs sorting

_________________

slight update, made the arches wider, coloured it blue and put an intercooler on it, oh and tinted the windows. any better?

_________________

youve lost quite alot of the depth of the paint, i.e. theres alot less contrast / fewer shades than there is in the red one, preferred the first one tbh and youve still got a dodgy front tyre :p

Wide arches look good tho

_________________

arches look spot on mate, im guessing you used saturation/hue/luminosity controls to change the colour, try using the colour variation tool, then fine tuning it with the first one, i find it keeps all the depth a lot better. i would also lower the opacity of the front mount. but, as said before, top job

i know i said i would finish my mazda but i have given up, all the decals arent the same as before but i do have a nice capri on the way
