Well i'm sure you guys all know i'm gonna try to get my car painted decent by a friend of mine..


Here is a Photoshop of what i'm expecting with the TRD extensions and going back to the silver color.
1.

but I def want to have some kinda major christian graphic on it.. i've tried the Script Jesus but don't think it really flows with the car...
2.


thinking about my Screename: (vinyl, easy to remove if sell car but would be the kind of witnessing i'd love)
3.


Can you guys post up some ideas for me? Photoshops would be awesome.

Thanks a bunch!

maybe you could do something like "tribal" art on the sides.



like that? You might be able to make one resemble the crown of thorns? <--- idk if thats correct i am of a different faith.

And maybe nest a cross in the middle?

i'm not sure.. the "Jesus" decal I had before was tribal.. didn't think it flowed with the car cuz of all the sharp edges and the celica has so many curves..

I did try a cross in the middle.. like this... not sure if it looked good or not..

[pepsiman]

i like the way you got the cross and stuff right now, maybe keep something along them lines?

x2, it's kinda pure...not too complicated, and it goes well with the line under the windows.

idk man im not big on complex art work on cars. just simple pins triping and tear graphics but. i think a black tear graphic on the sides would look pimp.

[presure2]

So like this?

yup, just keep the line going down the side straight. (dont know if that is inteneded in the pic)

[CelicaST_CALI]

put a gt-4 grill on that bumper and it would look godly..

[tjblacrosse]

i like your idea in the second photo, but put the cross graphic on to accompany the body kit. Still stays classy looking while keeping a subtle graphic on the side

you talking about in between the headlights?

[96bluevert]

I think the last PS is the best one. Or maybe all silver w/ the cross on the hood (obviously not soo stretched out like the one on the side).

Or cross on front bumper and then the extensions from it going around down the sides. idk, just throwing some ideas out.

I agree with Manny, I think the simple cross and lines along the side looked good.

But what about a little lower and matching it with the body line that the sidemarker and bumper crease are on?

like this

(I tinted the fogs too, the color was distracting me )

i dont think it would be that tall..(the gt-4 grill)

8-no
7-perhaps
6-to complex

first one: pretty much what I was thinking. Cross in the center with maybe some lines all around to give it a "glowing effect".

second one: cross centered on front bumper and straight lines going down either side, eventuially comming to a small point. And I wasn't thinking about anything in the back (from where the side cross is on backward).

but these are just suggestions, I'm sure whatever you wind up doing it'll look really good.

If I was good enouph in photoshop, I'd show you, but unfortunally not all of us are that skilled..yet

stick with the single line with the cross like steff has it.

looking at the pics more, you need to change your idea for the OEM fronts, they really dont flow that well on the 94-5 bumper IMO.
the SSIII's wont really work either, they are too small to match the line of the skirts.
