Default RS side inlets photoshop!

Hi..
Any photoshop expert that would take the time to photoshop the side inlets in body color?

Someone in another thread mentioned it, thought it would look nice like on the 993..





Some sample pics if it helps:

(Notice in the first pic, the inlet comes in 2 parts..)








Thanks!

Personally, I don't have a problem with the color of the side inlets, as much as I do with the materials.

In fact, I think black is fine and probably the right choice as it gives the car a certain rakish look to it, and matches the other black exterior trim pieces.

It would be nice, however, if they were carbon fiber. Heck, even GM is able to fit the CTS-V with an OEM carbon fiber splitter. A part of the car that's going to see alot of more hazardous road conditions than side inlets or rear quarter panel intakes.

I agree..

I remember seeing some for sale in carbon, but they're quite expensive..

The factory already did it for you. Heres a picture from another thread (ED pick up factory exclusive program form a week or so ago). Looks great with the cream accents too... :-)

Is it just me, or does the painted intake make the car look longer?

Looks like someone has changed the suspension on my beloved tweety bird. God, I wish I still owned that car.
