nicely done mate

but i can see the smudge lines on the door gap, and where the door handle used to be. and the shadow on the side skirt. apart from that, good job mate, keep up the work. is this your first try?

no its not my first try and how about you show some of your work before you comment on others in here !
i chopped it into a coupe for some fun its not going into production ! if ya dont have anything nice to say then dont say it at all.
there's lots of good photoshop work from lots of people in here and some a new to it and others have been doing it for years . so i hope my work will give you ideas or insperation to do some crazy work in here for us all to see !
to everyone else who made a comment glad ya all liked it .

STREETFIRE68 · 17-12-2007, 06:07 PM

mate i didn't come here to stir up s**t.

hoped you realised that.

CK_318 · 17-12-2007, 06:30 PM

cranky, but thats alright i'd say the same thing if i were in your position. but back to the picture, i think i now like the R8's. the Tail Lights look like they were made for a two door not a 4 door 'chewi'. and it looks like it'd be a pretty simple conversion if someone were to do it in real life. really good buddy

STREETFIRE68 · 17-12-2007, 06:48 PM

i love the idea though

that would look horn in real life.

again, sorry about it. that "other website" I came from was pretty strict with chops, and i had to adapt or get kicked out. i got kicked out anyway

a lot of them hated aussie V8s, that's why. i photoshopped a WB ute , stuck on a tunnel ram from a different car and added smoke, looked good, but they thought it was crap.

holden_grunt · 17-12-2007, 07:49 PM

thats cool mate no hard feelings !

GMLXSS · 19-12-2007, 02:11 AM

Where can I order one from? No.....hold that order, where can I find the $$$ that sucha georgous piece of artwork would surely cost.

Fantastic looking pic holden grunt

STREETFIRE68 · 19-12-2007, 11:23 AM

don't really like the antenna that R8s come standard with, spoils the shape, and it whacks the rear window at about 230 kph. anyone know that?

CK_318 · 19-12-2007, 02:43 PM

^^ well just remove it then and get a wireless one installed.

hs(cott)v · 21-12-2007, 11:04 AM

good chop, i cant comment on that guy commenting http://aussiev8.com.au/showthread.php?t=13353
lol but yeh, only gripe with the r8 is the rims, prefer the 20"s on the gts
but still good anyways

stroker355 · 01-01-2008, 04:34 PM

Shame on holden for not releasing this model in a coupe, I would rather it than the camaro we're getting here in 2009, sold by our holden dealers.
