This will be one of many Red Bull skins I'm planning on making. I've also started an XRG skin but it doesn't have as much potential as this one. I'll eventually get this skin over to the fxr, but I was after an fxo skin first.
Anyway, I came across this one on google.. Rhys Millen's red bull drift car - a Pontiac GTO (I think - Aussies would know it as a Holden Monaro). It's a very close match to the FXO/FXR. This is the main image I've based it off:

I have a few shots of the details on the side as well which helped determin which decals I needed. I didn't have any shots of the rear of the car, so it is purely speculative. However, I've just found a tiny pic that shows the back, so I have some modifications to make - though I wasn't far off, suprisingly. I'll attach the main photos I have, so if you have any that show more detail please post them.
Besides the rear of the car, which I will redo tonight, the main issue I have is the Bridgestone logo on the front wheel arch. I had trouble getting it to warp correctly, plus the texture doesn't map very uniformly. There's a lot I don't know about photoshop... is there a way to align an image to a path? I had to do it by hand with the warp tool. That being said, I have some photos that show the bridgestone logo that is just straight... so it has changed at some point in time - which one should I go for?
Please let me know what you think, feedback of any kind welcome
