If anyone is thinking about doing any custom painting under the hood, take a look at vette works international (www.vetteworksintl.com). Their work is truly amazing and Bryan was a pleasure to deal with and really values his customers.

I just got my air bridge back and had my FRCs painted 2 months ago.

I do not believe so. They have done a few posts on this forum but I do not believe that they are a vendor here.

They have done work on the #3 C6R car and the E85 Z06 pace cars. Check their website out (www.vetteworksintl.com). I am not affilated with them in any way, just a very happy customer.

I was just curious. I know them as they are near me. Their prices are much higher than mine and I have the same patterns and more.

Looking Good!

Is that the standard Power Duct that you had Hydrocorboned?? Or is it a different Power Duct. Looks to be extremely low profile.

We aim more towards the highest end of show cars. Our prices are higher becuase we use superior paints and clears like PPG and House of Color when doing our hydrographic work. We also wetsand and buff each piece after it is finished for the ultimate shine. Also on parts like Fuel Rail Covers and Airbridges we include 3D polyurethane script and emblems. There are a couple other companies on her doing paint and hydroclad parts many who sub the work to a third party. We will put the look of our finished parts up agianst anyones!Everything is done inhouse at our shop in Holder Florida. We have done parts on everything from motorcycles to Lamborghinis to $300,000 SEMA Show cars and projects for numerous companies and individuals. Just gives us a call and let us know what you would like to have done..and we will see what we can do for you.
