Thread: Anybody got photoshop

And want to play with this???



I'm thinking a metallic charcoal grey and these wheels

I only have Gimp, and I'm still learning with it.

but also, those wheels will not fit your falcon as they are 5 lug. Falcon 6cyls have a 4 X 41/2" bolt pattern, and is kind of hard to find in the aftermarket.. but American Racing makes 2 wheels that fit, and 1 is a Halibrand knockoff that looks really good

Actually those wheels are a 6-bolt pattern.
Are these the Halibrand knock-offs you're talking about?: http://asp.americanracing.com/dealer.../mega/mA69.jpg


Being a Falcon....... if you wanted to do it....... you could likely do a Mustang 5-bolt swap couldn't you? That would likely give you more cool wheel options as well


Edit:
Here's a really quick chop for you though
(I think you need some wider rubber on that car )

Oh yeah wider rubber definitely. Those wheels do come in 4 x 4 1/2, thats just a representative photo of them . Took forever to find some decent looking 4 lug wheels that didn't look like dang ricer wheels

Haha. Ya I hear that.
I went through the same thing when I did my wheels last year.

What wheels did you end up going with? Will photoshop paint the car a different color too....say a metallic charcoal grey

dang ricer wheels

Also what size wheels and tires should I go with?

this is the best I can do right now. the current paint being a 2 tone messes with the colors so I had to deleate all coloration from the car which made it flat ( removed shine ) and messed with it a bit.

those wheels are not the same.. wheels I'm thinking about are a natural finish and look more like traditional Halibrands... I just checked and it appears they do not sell them anymore. They were Ansen natural finish, the 1's you showed were polished Ansens


Mustang V8 stuff from '65-'68 would fit the car and give 5 lug wheels but The front end stuff from a Granada will give 5 lug front, and the rear from a Maverick V8 will give 5 lug rear... but doing that for a set of wheels, is an expensive set of wheels

I upgraded to a 5-lug setup when I swapped out my old 7.5 rear end for an 8.8, and ended up buying my friend's 2001 Bullitt Mustang wheels.

Rubber is 245/45/17 performance all-season up front and 275/40/17 Nitto NT555R drag radials in the rear

As for the photoshop, I'll see what I can swing for you

Hopefully this is along the lines of what you were going for

yea.. that's much better than what I can do. looks real good like that

Yeah, thats kinda cool, probably gonna go with just a solid color though, and some nice tires w/ those wheels. Hopefully it comes out good
