Photoshop Guru Needed, 4dr to 2dr A4 conversion

[dobos100]

...I am playing with the idea of converting my A4 sedan to a 2dr coupe, If anyone can photoshop a decent rendering that would be fantastic.
thanks in advance

How do you plan to do it; Weld the rear doors, bondo the seams and paint? it's going to look weird but show us a pic ;)

[dobos100]

I'd love to show a pic, that's why I need a photoshop expert.
I plan to either use the cabrio doors or just extend the front ones, move the B pillar further back and thicken the C pillar. The rear doors would be integrated into the rear quarter panel, basically A5 proportions but an A4 body. Im picturing a cross between a cabrio and A5.

hmmm sounds intresting

[tribe]

I'll give it a shot at PS when I get home from work

You must have a lot of money because that's going to cost quite a bit.

[jcg05c]

isnt that what an A5 is for or a cabrio?

[dobos100]

A5s and Cabrios do not look like b7 A4s. If they had a hardtop cabrio that would be closer but the tail still looks different. Here's a website with a few renderings, however the proportions are not quite right, I would like to mimic the A5 proportions if possible.

[Rotond0000]

[dobos100]

few examples of B5s, but not quite right...

[dobos100]

one more....

[Rotond0000]

i did a horrible job...but i also took about 7 minutes to do it...so yeah



at least its not as bad as that b6 one...

[jojogoya88]

lol looks really funky........thats a nono

[a4dc89]

far too much money and time spent on a project like that. just buy an a5 if you want a coupe it would prob cost a whole lot less and be far safer

[dobos100]

Thank you!!!
if you moved the B pillar further back, so it doesnt look like a rear door delete, it would look better, also from this angel its hard to tell but the C-pillar going to the trunk need to be thicker where it connects to the trunk. Let me know if you want to play with it some more.
either way thank you

[INTEGRATION]

Why don't you just get a A5/S5? You'd get the same result.

[dobos100]

The point is to have a 2dr A4 not an A5, some of you are missing the point, its to do something that hasn't been done before, I could ask many of you why Mod your A4s why not buy an S4? same reasoning and logic.

[Unleaded20T]

This is one hell of a project. It can be done, but its hard as hell.

[VZWalex]

DO IT !! I think it would look kool as hell .. if its done right of coarse

Totally different, people want A4 instead of S4 for price and fuel economy, You can get an A5 for less than what it takes to mod yours (+ the value of your car) and if you do find a way to "move the pillar" you are chopping up your car's frame, which would result in you having to drive the car really nicely and not hit a pot hole and make the frame fall apart.

[dobos100]

I respect you oppinion (a4 vs. s4), that could be a whole new thread.

You can move the pillar without sacrificing the structural integrity of the car. It just has to be done right.

I do realize an A5/S5 would be cheaper, but what is the fun in that.

[Latin Audi]

Its original. Quit hating on him for that and its his money not yours.

[Pure Euro]

Its a cool idea... but you're not going to do it...

Prove me wrong.

[BLACKa4QUAT]

i saw an s5 today, very hot. the proportions would be hard to replicate with our cars. and would end up looking funky.

[dobos100]

There is a good chance I will not, however, my best friend has done dual axle lambo door VW Scirocco, Chopped Top Astro Van with matching boat, etc. This would take a lot of money and even more time. I'd like to think I can pull it off.
How about coming up w/ ideas to help me, instead of hoping I will fail.

[Phrost]

I think just shaving the rear doors would look really bad. A 2 door with a full sized back seat? The only way to convert it into a good looking 2 door would be to shorten the car a tad IMO.

[thenicholsterr]

that b6 actually looked pretty cool

[tribe]

before

aft

[felondnb]

yeah coupe front doors are usually longer, so the work involved to relocate the B-pillar would be ridiculous!

[Obvis07]

LAMBO DOORS!!! lol

[skiaudi]

cheers to being original.... this would for sure be a one of a kind setup

[Auditude2.0T]

the guy who painted my car chopped a jetta and a made it a 2dr.

[Brent27]

kudos for thinking outside the box.....Also if your making it a 2 door i would relocate the door handles to under the front mirrors this would give it even smoother body lines and make it that much more unique....

[3.2some]

shit take it one step further and shave off the doorhandles

[Quattro]

here is an off topic idea...might be crazy make it a convertible!

[mreh]

heres my PS

[mrmeth90]

ive seen this done on a Jetta in euromag about 2 years ago. looked hot as hell

[Rotond0000]

so i worked wiht it more...and it looked like crap...so im not gonna post it lol...and like the most recent pshop poster...i also tried to delete the pillar but i didint think that looked right either
