Can someone Photoshop the GT500 front bumper and replace the black with examples of different body colors?

Thanks...

This one took me a while, but I was able to color match the bumper pretty well. Enjoy.

Sorry, didn’t read the original post. My mistake. Here is a white one.

I should mention . . . I don’t have Photoshop.

I think I'd wrap the front bumper instead of paint it much easer to reverse it you don't like it.

I agree though I would probably wrap it in matte black or maybe even a really nice Carbon Fiber wrap to what it looked like and way easier to go back

JFC, hahaha, you win the internets this weekend :D

Up early and bored so I did a quick edit on one image and here it is. Personally, I like the black in front, at least on Rapid Red.
Not being critical on your photochop (which is pretty decent), but making it body colored absolutely destroys one of the key design elements of the GT500.

Here's another just to make the point. I think black is the only way to go, whether painted or wrapped.

Granted, it MIGHT look better if the stripes were continued on the bumper but that's a bigger job in PS than I have the motivation for at the moment. :-)

What the heck, I don't have anything better to do. <laughing>

Here's a quick "stripe kit" and granted, it ain't perfect but it's close enough to show that it still doesn't look as good as solid black.

I am a body color psycho and was certain i would have the bumper bar painted body color. Now after waiting for years, and still waiting on mine I am pretty sure it will stay black. Painting it body color does something I am not sure how to explain, for 1 it makes it look more like the regular mustangs and it somehow takes the aggressiveness out of the front end. I don't think body color would look bad, i just don't think it will look better. I will have to do some serious photoshopping once i get one in my hands, but i have went from 100% sure i was going to paint to 99% sure i will not.

I thought it would look bad but I’m surprised how bad the body color piece of the bumper really looks. Funny cause the Camaro is the opposite where the new SS needs the body color bumper.

I just about fell out of my chair when I saw your post. White magic marker and all. Very funny.

Nice work!

While the stripes help, it's still not great. 1) The lower section is too large vs. upper section, it creates an odd imbalance (that's not a design pattern normally present in cars); 2) That's a cross brace / bumper type piece, it's not really part of the front fascia, it's supposed to be "behind" the fascia (so to speak ...), in body color, it looks like a disjointed body component.
