RUF CTR photoshop help..

Hey guys... I'm going to be starting my CTR clone in the next month or so and have been trying to narrow down some color choices. Ive been leaning toward. maritime blue, viper green, signal orange. I have even been thinking of going toward the other end of the spectrum with maybe something like Audi's nimbus grey or aviator grey. I have always been blown away at some of the photo shop skills that you guys have and would love to have you guys go at it and show me some great colors for a CTR... thanks and I cant wait to see what you got.

Nimbus grey woud be the way to go, in my opinion. Stealthy, but all business.....killa. Also, this color would be similar to RUF's NATO drab green color, period correct and true to the RUF attitude of the day.

CTR clone sounds like a fun project. Sorry i can't help u with photoshop, but would also like to see RUF in GREY.

good luck

While we have the photoshop programs running can someone photoshop yellowbird in the factory silver with the ruf rims with a polished lip and diamond black (metallic gray) spokes. I'm about to get some ruf rims and I'm considering painting the spokes. Al Reed can polish the lips and he has a powdercoating place nearby. Thanks much.
