Re: Oh my god! Look what someone did to a vette!
Wow!!!
Typicaly these kits look horible, but this is by far the best looking corvette I ever saw. Who ever performed the work did a great job! The only problem is that with the money invested he could have bought a new viper, and had the handeling of a viper as well. Not to mention a v10... |

Re: Oh my god! Look what someone did to a vette!
That is a photoshop job. The first clue is that there are cloud reflections on the Viper but not in the vette. Around the air duck in the front the indintation runs through the top of the duct but there is not a corrosponding dip in the profile of the duct. There is missmatched color where the viper turns into the vette. The viper has a bluer tinge to it. The biggest novice photoshop user giveaway is the obviase pixel pattern tesseleation. Look at the left edge of the picture where the road meets the grass. I have a feeling that there are a lot more give-aways but the image looks to have a lot of artifacts from the high compression.

Re: Oh my god! Look what someone did to a vette!
Good eye. Also note that the side marker lite is on in the front but not the back.

Re: Oh my god! Look what someone did to a vette!
Definitely a Photoshop job! I'd recognize that front end and wheels anywhere! Look where they stole it from:
http://vca1.viperclub.org/ubb/Forum14/HTML/007502.html Also, the front sidemarker appears to be on but is actually a reflection from the flash when I took the original picture. Not a bad job though. |
