Default PS help: WALD SPOILER

Hello CL. I need some PhotoShop experts or users help.

I am considering on buying the WALD trunk spoiler but I would like to fill in the hole where the "L" logo goes for a clean shaven look. I might be commiting to it soon, by this weekend or Monday, but i would like to see how it looks filled in. Since it's impossible to take that "L" out without having it filled, shaven and painted to color match, having the spoiler filled in might look great and easier to get done.

Here are the pics that can be PSed.




I would also like to hear some opinions on whether its easy (as in is the painter going to have a problem filling it in or if i'ts even possible) or if it's a good idea. I think it would look good but would like to hear what you guys think.

Any help is appreciated. THANKS!

I think it gives it a cleaner look, especially with this spoiler. Plus there's already a "LEXUS" emblem on the lower left that can't be taken off either so that should be enough.

Thanks again for all the PS.

I like the L logo. If anything, keep the L and shave the rest.

How much does this lip cost?

^^^ I'm going to keep the "L" logo in front so I think one if enough for me. I might even black that out too.

I'm not going to remove the "L" logo, I'm merely going to cover it up with the spoiler. The PS should give a good idea on how it looks.

As for the spoiler price, their having a CL member sale on the spoiler in the Sponsor Sale forum. I don't want to give out the price, give them a call and ask for Mike. His a cool guy.

It doesn't look bad without the "L" emblem. If it was me, I'll keep the logo. I'd rather take off the "Lexus" emblem on the rear and replace it with WALD emblem.

I was considering the WALD emblem but I don't really want to advertise the spoiler. I want to take all the meblems off, but Lexus just had to place holes behind the emblems which make it a lot more difficult.
