I see you got alot of work done at Boos. I have some TPIS LTs and Random Tech cats and xpipe coming.

Wondering who would be the best/reasonable place to take it. I had a baseline a few weeks ago.

Those look great! Too bad you had to cover up that radiator cover with the airbridge. I know what is in the middle of it under the airbridge I saw those pieces as they were coming together on airbrush.com. Very nice

Yup, was a bit of a let down to have something like that get burried, but Jamie knows better...NOW!

This is the second set Jamie did for me, so I am sure I'll get bored with them and have him do something else.

Crikey! Don't go lifting your hood at shows or you will scare young children!

Should have an 18 certificate.

Fantastic.

I was just talking to Jamie earlier tonight and he asked if I had seen the covers with the real flames on Corvette Forum. So I came home and searched until I found this thread.

All I can say is he did an Awesome job. Very talented at what he does, his freehand work is unreal.

Congrats on the engine compartment. Great job.

Phil...
