Gotta love the power of the photoshop!

You have some mad photoshop skills irish!
how do you change the color like that? is it just a matter of selecting the area you want to change and then applying some filters?

This car was at the 2008 MOCQ muster.

You might be able to find some ideas from looking though the photos from previous musters & any other event photos here on ausmini. Good luck. I like the greens you're considering. Very nice. :)

I found this photo here:

There's not much to it! I just selected a rough area around the mini, change the colour range (under the select menu) to only include the original red colour, and paint over the original in 'colour' mode with the colour I want. It only takes a minute. If you look around the pink mini, you can see where I selected it - not perfect, but it gives a good indication.

Here, I did one in green to try and match the last piccy - it's a little off, though, looks more toothpaste now I've changed monitors:

I went through this a few months back - still can't make my mind up.

I agree that a white roof sounds strange on a Clubman but it doesn't look all that bad.

My current thoughts: light steel grey with half shade (half way between grey and white) "Clubman"along the sides - an possible half shade grey roof but I'd need to see it on photshop - hint hint :D
