Default Color change for center of grill and veilside lip flat black

Can someone photoshop in a flat black finish, which is similar to whats on the New Chargers hood, the center of my Z's grill in the following pictures. I would like two versions please, one with the stock location of the veilside lip black (not all the way down), and another with the rest of the center of the veilside lip black.

for other pictures with different angles please replace the numbers in the URL with the following frontal shots:

8662

Here you go bro...





Personally, I like the one that goes all the way down especially if you'll have a similar design on the rear where the bottom mid-section is flat black. I think the only thing scary about a black lip is that chips will show very easily.

Can you also black the sides in the center of the grill and maybe do another angle. That does look good too a lil "GTRish". But still Z.

What about these two angles, i think it will have like a jaw drop look to it. Hopefully the clear bra will prevent rock chips and not add to much gloss to it.

How's this...

Tried to reduce the glare as much as I can while trying to keep it as realistic as possible with lighting. The lip on this pic originally has a bright glare on the lip. Couldn't really use the other one since the tall grass was in the way. BTW...took out the holes on your bumper too . If you want...I can even shave the Nissan burger.

I think im gonna do the veilside lip in the center flat black as well. It really looks good. Looks better when you look from further back.
The last picture is hard to tell. Any luck with the other pix in the 1st post? I get the idea already so if your busy don't worry about it.
