Anyone good with photoshop willing to help a guy out?

To any of you that are reading and willing to help, i have an idea. An idea that i dont think has been done before by anyone. At least anyone i have seen. I would like to see if someone will photoshop a push bar like the ones on charger police cars onto a black, stanced and lowered cobalt. Badgeless and clean. I was thinking about this for a while. I havent done much research on this yet but i will now that as i come back from afghanistan i will have the money to actually do this. I will prolly have to have one custom made, because i dont know any companies that sell them for cars and i dont think they make them for cobalts. The ones for chargers and other police cars are probaly to big. But a black car with the right size push bar looks fresh. Maybe to just me but i think it looks good. I think our cars have the front end to pull this off well. It may not be very light but it should have its advantages such as, weighing the front end down for traction( not by much though) , and providing crash support. This could be great. Most of you may disagree but i have a dream to make something new, fresh, and different.

This isn't on a cobalt, but I remembered this from my days on the jbody forums. Enjoy!

Yeah you don't need a light bar on top of your car. Just get low profile ored blue and white strobes I. You windshield and grill. And wig wags.

Does anyone know any good fabrications shops? I want one taylored to the car so it fits it perfectly. It will be great though. The ones ive found are for police cars and can only be bought by police departments.

First off have you checked eBay? They usually have crap like that all over. Secondly you will probably have to cut your bumper for one to mount. And thirdly are you wanting it for looks or actually intending on pushing things with it, cause honestly I think if you built one or found one that would work and started pushing things and bumping things with it I think it would just Fu k up your car. And it if its just for looks I'd go about how the guy on the jbody forums did and just make it out of aluminum so its light.

You kinda sound like a hater but i want one that is functional yet i dont want to have to use it. Will be a great safety feature, but will look sick. Second i know i will have to cut the bumper at ;east some, that has been accounted for in the planning stages. unless i can get it to mount under the bumper. I dont want a piece of crap hangin off my car it has to be functional. If i put stuff on my car that cant serve its purpose then i am just another ricer. Ebay? No. I will not trust the highway for cheap and knock off parts for my car. I planned on cutting the bumper though because its pretty messed up as it is so why not use it as a project bumper and then buy a new bumper later on? But thanks for the imput though its been helpful.
