SUBARU photo manip

hey, so i decided to manip an STi. the top is the before, the bottom is the after.

i love the STi. I figured it'd be cool if there were an STi-R. Hence, my photoshop skills... let me know if you like this.

Looks good but like hondamani-iac said there is something awkard with the front bumper. Not the lights or anything but the way it hangs in there and the intercooler looks a bit funny too. But very nice skills with photoshop.

let me explain, its exactly the way it should be.

the angled "INTERCOOLER" isnt an Intercooler. Its a radiator.
whats above that is the intercooler.

next thing, the front bumper appears to be angled due to the fact that it really is. tuners sometimes use whats called the "front" spoiler which adds downforce to the front of the car. Since it is indeed 4WD, it should have two sets of spoilers.

im planning on changing the bg of it, and repainting the whole thing, so it becomes almost like a painting.

If you think a little bit of angle added to the front kit is gonna add downforce that's gonna do the least bit of good, you're out of your mind. It needs a true front spoiler to get anything useful, otherwise it's just for show and anybody who knows anything will call you out on it. The wheels (while suited well to the car) are lit funny, and the rear looks like it's out of alignment and the camber is off. If it's a drag car, it looks alright, but if it's a rally car, it has nowhere near enough travel/clearance.

I think what everyone is alluding to is that while it's a good photoshop effort, it's obviuously photoshopped. It looks good, but it would never pass for the real deal.

wow you have some amazing Photochop skills thats for sure but the front end is really awkward lookin to me too, kind alooks like it hit a truck or something.
so what good is the hoodscoop though if you put the intercooler in the front grill, the STi has a topmounted intercooler doesn it?

shards : i moved the intercooler to the front and the top hood scoop just pushes air to the engine.

yea i agree with ya guys, this is more of a street drag car than any true rally car, but still, its badass, ill try some other cars too,


any suggestions?

I really prefer the stock look. If I ever get an STi, it will be white with gold/bronze rims. No kits tho....
