Garage Art - Pics!
Hi Everyone!
I asked my closest friend - who also happens to be an art wizard to paint the C5 Logo right next to where I park my baby. lol He happily obliged. Needless to say, it turned out awesome! Although it's not exactly to spec - all he wanted to use was a tape measure, painters tape, and obviously the paint. The entire emblem is roughly 3' x 6'. He added a little flare to it rather than making it exactly the same colors as the OEM logo, and I really like it. Attached are the progression pics - please let me know what you guys think! -Thanks!
