Default PS of AP1 S2K without vents or badges

First off the first picture is not mine, it was posted by eraxpres in his thread. I used his car because I did not have a good quality picture of my car from the front.

The idea came from a thread on S2000 Talk concerning the front vents and how the original concept vehicle did not have them. I decided to photoshop an AP1 S2K to see how it would look with out the vents as well as without the badges and bumper holes. Also wanted to mention that this was a quick Photoshop job using the Clone Stamp tool, it's not perfect, but you get the idea.

Here's a side by side comparison:



Also here's a side shot (this is of my car):



So what does everyone think of this look? I kinda like it, it's different in a subtle kind of way.

Here's a picture of the prototype S2000 without the vents:



And a link to the thread that started it all:

Looks good imo, it looks like the prototype s2000 that was driven in Japan.

yea keep them, if you fooled around with smaller/different vents it might look cool, but i like the "vents" how they are.
