Small Grille Photoshop Request!

[The Black Dahlia]

Hey Guys, I have a small request:

I am going to powdercoat or maybe black chrome my existing Mesh behind my custom grille. I am HORRIBLE at photoshop attempts. Anyone on here have the ability to try out some colors on the mesh on my grille?

Lookin for a Black Mesh, or a Gunmetal finish. Any other ideas are welcome! Trying to complete the whole aggression look with more emphasis on Sport rather than Bling.

I appreciate any visual help I can get before taking it apart and going for it. Thank you from one Cadillac enthusiast to another!

Also- if you'd rather have a Head-On pic to work with or different pics let me know. I appreciate the help.

Endo, awesome visual! I like the different idea of keeping the chrome bar chrome.. it almost gives a throwback to Gen1 CTS's front bar. I will either just do the mesh black or black outall the chrome surrounding it, including that chrome bar..

Again, awesome job and thank you thank you.. Looks killer.

Looks nice! I think if the top chrome bar were black it would be perfect though.

Im blacking out all of the chrome frame and changing my Alias to Darth Dahlia. Thanks endo for the help, Finally gives a great visual to the ideas that have been brewin for all of us! Should look sick with front all blacked out (excluding wreath and crest), d3 roof and trunk spoiler, and also the rear chrome bar and bumper chrome blacked out along with shaving the rear emblem off..

Transformation complete?...

Thanks again endo for taking the time to help me out editing that grille. Youre quite good at the photochops.

No problem Black Dahlia. Here are a couple of more photoshop.

I think the all blacked out grill looks better.


blacked out rear


removed the crest. it was kind of hard to remove it completely out but I tried my best.


Oh yeah I think I would looks nice if you were to black out the side vents too

DAMN! Nice work! Though, Ill def keep the emblem chrome to make it 'pop'... im so-so on the rear, but it does look killer. Doesnt look like anything on the road, thats for sure!!! Now ya got my brain rattlin'!!

Black Dahlia, the black grille is exactly what i want and have been looking for. I would love to have the black mesh with a chrome trim around the outside.

i know the forum is strict on selling things if your not a supporting vendor, but i am just saying if you were to make and (you know) them, then i would (you know) from you in a heartbeat
