Justin, your work looks excellent. I wouldn't choose that look for my vette, but you did an outstanding job.

Wow! I don't know what to say, so I'll just say something like..."it's your car, do what you want"

The paintjob quality is very nice but the graphics pattern on that silver is a nono. Maybe Bowling or Fairway green would have been better?

As long as the customer was happy, that's what counts. But sure is not what I would have done to the car in terms of colors and graphics. I will say the quality looks good.

They say, "If you can say anything nice, don't say anything"

Guys, lighten up. This job took some amazing talent, planning and craftsmanship. It's not designed to worship the holy alter of all things Sacred Vette; it's clearly designed to grab attention and stop people in their tracks -- and admit it, if you came across this at a show you'd stop and linger for a minute, weather you love it or hate it. The guy who did this has far more ***** and talent than anyone who's ever slapped on some SS inserts and a hood seal and considers thier car "modded".

If every Corvette out there was TR with a black interior, the Corvette lifestyle woud be as exciting as Corolla ownership.

Well it's very different and unique!

In my opinion I would admire it at a show and take some shots but I would not want the scheme on my Vette personally!

But I would ask who did the job so if I did need paint done or a scheme they might be the one to go to !

Thanks,Matt
