why couldn't that have been a photoshop???
See earlier post by Keisatsu. Photoshop is a powerful tool if someone knows how to use it. It's probably possible to reasonably fake a reflection on a car hood, but only rendering tools like a ray tracing program can accurately show optically correct reflections on objects.

See the reflections of the light poles and newspaper vending machines on the wet sidewalk in this ray-traced image of a street scene? This isn't the best demonstration of rendered reflections but everything in this image is a 3d model and the scene can be re-rendered from a different camera perspective. Photoshop cannot do this.

This image, The Wet Bird, was designed by Gilles Tran and rendered using the powerful freeware ray tracing program POV-Ray (the Persistence of Vision ray tracer).

HEHE, I know that guy, used to work with a friend of mine at a local car dealership. He got the car from his Grandma. He just put all that stuff on there as a joke. And no the picture isn't photoshopped, and no there is nothing special about the engine, completely stock beside the glass pack. I guess he knows a mechanic who has a turbo motor from something (can't remember what though) and he would like to put that in the car and convert it to manual (Ha, like that will ever happen). But you should see the looks we get cruisin' HWY 100 (Mostly laughing, but that is the point of the whole car, so it's actually pretty fun).

P.S. Oops, I forgot he ditched the glass pack and got an actual can .

You can't see it well in the pictures that where posted, but there are stickers on the side that say "My BLOWER isn't under the hood, she's next to me!"

Sort of refused to sit shot gun after he put those on there
