Default photoshop favor to ask

i was doing some thinking, and this might get me in trouble later on but right now i don't care. i'm tired of my cheesy looking euro trash tail lights. the only reason i got em was because they were a cheap fix for state inspection. so i was thinking, my truck bed is black and the shiny chrome plastic in the tail light sure does stick out, i wonder what it would look like if that chrome crap was painted black to match my bed. if i post a picture, does anyone think they can work some photochop magic for me?

Post a pic and I'll give it a shot unless someone else beats me to it.

Mine is Indigo Blue.

That's my buddy Chris' truck; his s/n is Smokinrice. Guess I should've said that. Those were smoked euro clears before he candied them. The smoked lenses made them turn out a little darker than most candied tails I've seen. They look super sharp on his truck.

These aren't the tails that Chris has, but maybe start w/ something like this?

That is a bad truck. I got a Q and this is probably stupid. Can you get a roll pan with a towing package. I would think that hitch would stick out a mile and look dumb. What would it look like without the hitch? I'm sure someone has done this.

You can get a hidden hitch for most rollpans. Just make sure that you get one that will work w/ the rollpan that you get. It's best to buy the one that they suggest...I have a Sir Mike's pan and a Belltech hitch, and they don't work together. If you get a Belltech rollpan, I'll make you a KILLER deal on the hidden hitch to go w/ it.

I got my hidden hitch and roll pan from AIM (I know), and they work perfect together. If you get a sir mike's, get thier hitch and relocator too.

I candied my tails and I think they look great. They're definatley different and a lot better than the common euro crap.
