Could someone please Photoshop this...

I'm thinking of painting my corvette and would like to see what one would look like if it was Daytona Sunset Orange. You have probably seen this color on some C6 vettes and I would like ot see what mine would look like.
This is the vette I would like to see in Sunset orange.

This is a C6 ZO6 thats already in the color.


Neither of the cars/pics are mine. My corvette has horrible brown paint right now so I used the 1st good pic I could find.

Thank you,
Nate

Nader, you're probably going to have a pretty tough time getting a realistic looking chop in that color. I've heard that sunset orange is a pretty tricky one to get to look natural.

Thanks bombhunter, i think it looks great. And I can understand why this would be so hard to chop. I just wanted a general idea.

Again Thanks,
Nate

as said earlier hard color to do- and goddamn your car is shiny- makes it even harder

only had a few min to play around - but this may help too

Man that car really looks slick. If I were you I would leave it black.

For the people photoshopping this, if you open up the levels (ctrl + L or command + L) on the original image of the Corvette, you can move the black limit to a more gray color and get a more realistic sunset orange most likely.

The color itself looks a little less chrome-like, but now it's almost pastel.

There is a 70s Corvette that was by my old work that was in that color. It looked great. I say go for it.
