Unusual request.

I did read the thread about posting pics of things you want added but I dont think there would be a pick of what I want done. I figure photoshop should have tools to do what I want done. OK, I want to play a friendly joke on my dad, we joke with each other alot, he and my mom are on vacation, and he's trading in his car for a new one when he gets back. So he had me detail it and remove his satelite radio which was mounted on the left vent, and the power cord and antenna ran through the vent flaps and down behind the radio and climate control. So if one of you could make it look like I snapped the plastic piece(wood grain looking thing) that holds the vents, I would greatly appreciate it. My dad is only familiar with the business side of computers so it doesnt have to be perfect, but he is no dummy, so the more realistic the better. I took some pics from different angles if that will help.

Thanks. If no one can do my original request by tonight I'll go with that. The email will read something like this ???????????????????????? and cracked the winshield, but at least the glass didnt break all the way and fall down the defrost and the car is clean.

Re: Unusual request.

Below is what the email read.

Subject: Enjoying yourselves?

Well I managed to get the satelite radio out without cracking the plastic vent holding piece, but I was using my long sidecuts to cut the zipp ties that were securing the antenna wire, and I went to set the sidecuts on the dash and barely tapped the winshield and it cracked. (see attached pic) What should I do?

I will post his response when I get it, or what he says when he calls. Thanks again.



Edit:
AHHHHH! I completly forgot I showed him the picture of my truck that someone photo shopped for me.

No, I didnt notice. It looks like a reflection, but I guess I was just focused on the cracked winshield.

Punky that would have been perfect, but I already sent the email.



THANKS FOR YOUR TIME GUYS

Re: Unusual request.

Well it wasnt quite the response I was expecting, but this is what I got back.

Do not worry about it.

and that was it.


Then I got another email from him saying my mom(seriously scared of rollercoasters mom) went para sailing, and sent pics to prove it. I guess they must be having a pretty good time. Thanks again guys.
