looks good man, i think i like the CGM bottom with IBM top more

*Mindz* · 12-13-2009, 11:45 PM

I'm starting to think that too.

But the question remains:

Stripe or no stripe?

Roof stripe or just hood/trunk?

moto-camaro · 12-13-2009, 11:49 PM

that's a tough one, the roof stripe is a hot topic on it's own, some feel it doesn't belong on the 5th gen. sort of a personal preference i suppose; i've got nothing against it either way.

hey moto, go check the house of shno in the Z forum, mind giving your input on those items?

moto-camaro · 12-13-2009, 11:51 PM

sure thing

I would like to see the bottom half CGM and the top half IBM...no stripes.

And, IMO, that CGM is really dark in those pix...almost black. Not complaining, but think if you want a true representation, you'd need to lighten it up.

*Mindz* · 12-14-2009, 12:34 AM

here you go tag

moto-camaro · 12-14-2009, 12:42 AM

i've got PS again, but i'm bogged down as hell with school work and exams, i've got a Final Exam in Statistics in 9 hours

.. when i've got the time next weekend i'll take a pic or a real CGM car and photoshop it.

as for now, i've got the Dale Jr. already layered, so it's just a click of the mouse to change colors. here's a IBM/CGM with and without the stripes.

@ mindz/tag - i've never seen a CGM in real, so you guys can be this blind man's cane if what's here is a little bit too far off.

like i said, once i get the time i can do it with a true CGM pic, until then this is the best i can do.

moto-camaro · 12-14-2009, 12:43 AM

(i'll do 2 or 3 CGM bottom pics real quick here as well)

*Mindz* · 12-14-2009, 12:44 AM

looking pretty good. mind reversing the colors too? I'm showing my fiancee when I get home in about 45 minutes and she's REALLY pushing for cgm main body, and I kinda like the look of the top being IBM more and more.

moto-camaro · 12-14-2009, 12:52 AM

how's this? colors seem close?

Now, THAT is more like it!!! CGM is in the proper shade and I think the blue is a touch closer. That is a lot closer to what it will look like. Jarrod, looks like you got a winner on your hands there. Regarding the stripes, I'd either do the two tone or the two tone with rally's. Either would work well in my opinion.

thank you to 2010ss6spd for taking a photo of his CGM that is suitable for photoshopping

i hope he doesn't mind. alot of people take pics of their cars from some straaaaange angles

*Mindz* · 12-14-2009, 04:03 PM

Those look fantastic moto. Would you mind a single stripe one more time please?
