Photoshop request - should be easy

very simple request here. i only have one of the pictures right now, so i will try to get the other one soon, if needed. i know there are a lot of front end shots of black SS around here. i would like to see what it would look like with silver bowties, front and rear, about the color of the chevyhhr.net decal on the back of mine in the picture below. also, i'd like to see the HHR badge deleted (bowtie and badge delete in same pic, please). and i am curious how orange bowties would look. not like neon orange, just regular orange, not too dark, not glaringly bright. thanks in advance!!

I'm about to do the same thing. I talked to a guy yesterday about blacking out my grille, door handles, and rear hatch handle. I am looking for aluminum bowties in the correct size.

i would love to, but if i'm going to do carbon fiber bowties, i want real ones. i got an AutoMeter Carbon Fiber AFR gauge from a friend, brand new, about $20 cheaper than Summit sells em, and i remembered how much i love the look of real CF (i'm even going to order the real CF gauge cup from Summit to mount the gauge in hehe) and have decided i can't put fake CF. only problem is finding somewhere to get real CF stuff made...and the money to finance it lol. for instance, i really want to get a CF waterfall piece made but since CF is so expensive, for the time being i'm going to be doing either silver or orange accents. i have some House of Kolor spray model paints i'm going to use for various accents. i have the metallic Silver base paint, and i have Tangelo Pearl orange that i might do over the silver base.

and to Ahmad, yes, they're LED. they can be purchased through two (maybe more now, not sure) supporting vendors on this site, Race and Street (that's who i bought from) and HHR Boutique. they are made by InPro Car Wear (IPCW)

i'm starting to think maybe keep it clean and simple outside, with very few little silver accents on the exterior (i like the good flow of silver with the bowtie, decal, and tails on the back end), and then going a little more wild inside with the orange on various trim stuff (including the waterfall). keep some of the stuff inside that is silver from the factory as is, to tie in the silver on the outside. or maybe i should do the orange bowties to tie in to the orange throughout on the inside, and still keep some of the silver inside to tie in the tail lights and decal.

opinions? what do y'all think?

edit-ACK! just noticed Elle' killed ALL of the badges lol. i'm keeping the SS and Turbocharged badges, but the chicklets and HHR badge are going away.

I took the badges off my LT took about 5 minutes, but, dude, I would always leave the SS badge on!
