Man, your Vette some kind of magnet:

1. Chick (hopefully)

2. Cop (definitely)

Seriously, it looks great!

You made a stencil and then painted them?

I was thinking the same thing. I am originally from Chicago and I'm sure that car is a cop magnet!

Looks good!

And to answer the earlier question, yes, I made a stencil in Adobe Illustrator, plotted it 1:1 and sprayed the text. The first time I did it I used Ranger Tire Paint and was not satisfied with the results. Now I'm using Montana Gold Graffiti Paint and am MUCH happier with it. Just make sure you simple green the s*** out of the tires first!
