{
"subject": "A compact four door hatchback, body in clean polished graphite grey metallic, lightly tinted windows, body coloured mirrors with the side indicator lit, narrow elongated headlights with three round projector lenses in a row inside the same unit, a wide dark mesh lower air intake, round fog lights with a chrome ring, no manufacturer badge anywhere on the grille, the bonnet, the tailgate or the wheel centres, and the front plate area smooth and blank. Mandatory preservation when there is an uploaded photo: keep exactly the same car as in the uploaded photo - the same model, the same body shape, the same number of doors, the same headlights, the same grille, the same dents and scratches and the same paint colour, unless a new colour is asked for. Do not swap the car for another one, do not repair the bodywork and do not touch the plate. What changes is only the ride height, the wheel and the tyre.",
"action": "The car is parked, pulled up against the kerb, wheels straight and nobody inside. It is the photo of a car that has been handed over: no movement, no open door and nothing going on around it.",
"scene": "A residential street late in the afternoon. Behind the car runs a long wall of exposed reddish brick with strongly marked horizontal courses, with a dark closed garage door at the right margin of the frame. On the left, behind the bonnet, a pale concrete pole with thin wires crossing the sky diagonally. The asphalt is dark, worn and tar textured, and a pale concrete kerb crosses the lower band of the frame diagonally, from left to right. No person, no other car and nothing left lying around in the frame.",
"composition": "A vertical photo in 3:4 proportion. The car appears in a front three quarter view, turned to the viewer's left, and takes almost the full width of the frame in the middle band. The bottom third is the asphalt in front of the car with the kerb running diagonally; the top third is the brick wall and the sky. The front wheel sits slightly left of centre and is the sharpest point in the image.",
"camera": "Close distance, like someone shooting from about three metres with a phone. Low camera, at headlight height, almost resting on the asphalt, with the axis tilted slightly up, which stretches the flank and makes the car look closer to the ground. A slightly wide lens, medium depth of field: the wheel and the front sharp, the wall behind a little softer.",
"lighting": "A low late afternoon sun coming from behind and from the left, raking across. The brick wall catches warm orange light and the sky warms up near the horizon, pale blue at the top. A long golden reflection running along the flank and the bonnet, with the highlight concentrated on the edge of the wing and on the polished rim of the wheel. A long shadow of the car on the asphalt, stretched to the right.",
"color_palette": "Cool graphite grey of the paint, warm orange red of the brick, black of the asphalt, light grey of the kerb and the pole, pale blue sky with faint orange at the horizon. Medium saturation, soft contrast, warm dominant.",
"style": "A real photo from a good phone, taken by a friend out in the street. No studio, no 3D render and no swapped background: no rim light, no mirrored floor and no catalogue pose. Light natural grain and phone sensor sharpness.",
"materials": "Clear coat on the paint with a mirrored reflection of the sky and the wall, brick with visible mortar joints and wear, grainy asphalt with a patch, matte rubber on the tyre and polished aluminium on the rim with a specular highlight.",
"details": "What the image exists to show is the RIDE HEIGHT and the WHEEL. The car is lowered: the edge of the wheel arch almost touches the top of the tyre, leaving about a finger of gap on all four wheels, the side skirt runs low and the bumper line sits close to the asphalt, with a thin dark shadow under the whole car. The wheel is alloy, large diameter and deeply concave, with five wide spokes that split in two at the tip, a polished aluminium face, black gaps between the spokes, a black outer lip and a small dark centre with no badge. The tyre is very low profile, with a narrow sidewall and a clean bead line, with no readable embossed lettering. The bodywork stays whole and straight: no flared wing, no wheel cutting into the panel and no tyre tucking inside the car.",
"negative_prompt": "the car swapped for another model, manufacturer badge, logo, plate with readable characters, written sticker, lettering, text, letters, numbers, watermark, stock car with a high gap, wheel too small for the arch, flat or deformed tyre, wheel cutting into the wing, flared wing, melted bodywork, door with no handle, reflection of a person on the panel, a person in the frame, another car in the frame, mirrored studio floor, showroom background, 3D render, plastic sheen, a shadow running in a different direction from the rest of the street, AI artefacts, likeness to a real brand"

How to use
Lowering a car costs money and has no cheap way back: cut springs, wheels bought, and the feeling that it was going to look better. Here you upload the photo of your car and see the result before you spend. It works in ChatGPT, Gemini and NanoBanana.
1. Shoot the whole car in three quarter view, with the sun behind you. A cropped photo gives back an invented car.
2. In details, say how far down you want it, in fingers of gap between the tyre and the wheel arch. "Lowered" on its own turns into an exaggeration.
3. Still in details, describe the wheel: diameter, number of spokes, finish and sidewall height. That is what changes the look most.
4. Do not touch the preservation block in subject. It is what stops the AI from handing you a different car instead of yours.
5. Generate the same photo at two heights and compare them side by side. One finger of difference shows more than you would think.
Tip: take the image to the workshop. Agreeing the job by showing it is easier than explaining it.
