Real or fake?

jim.e. · 09-24-2012, 07:41 PM

I cringed when I saw this. Don't know if it's real or fake:

#Tee · 09-24-2012, 07:44 PM

Its hellaflush and looks better than 90% of the cars in here haha

E90Mario · 09-24-2012, 07:52 PM

ehhh.. that will buff right out.

roadkillrob · 09-24-2012, 07:52 PM

Marginal quality photoshop

E90Company · 09-24-2012, 07:55 PM

Photoshop.

Side-mirror has a blending mode that allows the flames to show through it. There is no right side mirror. The left mirror is lower than it should be. If you look at the back left tire, you can see a rough mask job in the bottom right corner

Mr.RT · 09-24-2012, 07:55 PM

That looks badass!

The flames are licking up over the left hand door which is why they're reflected in the mirror. Other mirror melted off.
Bunch of photos in the set confirming it.

sammy_0559 · 09-24-2012, 09:02 PM

the photo shopping was probably the coil overs lol

Elliott@DetailAddict · 09-24-2012, 09:03 PM

I think the struts probably blew out at that heat.
The heat waves make it look like the clone tool.

next_level · 09-24-2012, 09:11 PM

WilliamS · 09-24-2012, 09:21 PM

Anyone that kept saying it's fake after a link showing pictures of it needs to really read threads before posting to get the all important 1 extra post on their profile.

No one argue with this he knows his shit when it comes to photoshop

Elliott@DetailAddict · 09-24-2012, 11:41 PM

I work as a graphic designer.
That is a very real picture. Did you look at the rest in the photo set I posted?
It was even posted on here a while back lol
I give up.

bpsu07 · 09-25-2012, 12:32 AM

Photoshopping was probably the drop, and poke on the wheels...in the original pics, his wheels have no poke..So if his shocks blew, they would've been sunken.

But...is that an INTERCOOLER on a 320?!
