I wouldn't want my car looking like that but the paint job is excellent. If I saw that car at a show or sitting in a parking lot I would definitely be checking it out ... which is exactly what the owner was probably going for.

Whoever did the paint and layout is very talented but it just looks wrong on a Vette.

Would look nice on a big diesel pickup truck.

Default Glad to See You Back in the Limelight

Justin, Glad to see you're alive, well, and still creating. Miss your work on OCC projects. As you can see, the Corvette is a tough sell outside of a stock paint job. Keep pushing the edge!!!
