Getting rims. Anyone good with photoshop

I work at a GM dealer and I can special order a set of American Racing "Casino" Wheels for cheaper than list price. I wann know if anyone would photoshop a set onto an 84 cougar. If you need a link to my cardomain for my car let me know. I just want a good picture of what it would look like. I have any choice of wheel, I like these the best. Here are the three. Top to bottom my favorites.



Im special ordering these to match the bolt pattern and correct backspacing. These should fit like a cobra r, just and inch and half smaller width wise.

I like the second set; the one that Tbird232 did.

I'm partial to the second set as well.
The first set is nice.
I wouldn't do the third set.

I'm with everyone else on the third ones, they just wouldnt look right.  I like the first more than the second simply because they have a smoother look to them and they fill more space.  What diameter are you getting?

The third ones were threw in because there is an mn12 cougar with them here in town. Im torn between the first and second. The second are more complimentary to the boxiness of our cars with the flat spokes. The first are a more "complex" in my view looking version of the cobra r look.

Bigmeat: The diameter is 17x7.5. I could get 18x8. Im going with polished aluminum, not chrome
