Drastic indeed! Very nice conversion; it gives the photo a much more dramatic feel to it. Good job on the edit.

This is one of the only cases where I like fake vingnetting/heavy graduated filter. Fantastic job.

also, what car is that?

Yes, the edit is very drastic and works nicely.

Now, clean your lens/sensor so you don't have to clone out those dark spots or hide them with a heavy vignette.

How/why did you bring the background closer to the foreground?
Overall nice edit!
