Default New Desktop Background

I was wondering if anyone had a photo of their car I could use as a new desktop background? My monitor is a 49" ultrawide so 3840x1080 is the preferred size.

Thanks

Did the lights a while ago and recently did the badges.

@VetteLights has different options for the side lights that look way cooler than the stock lights. https://www.vette-lights.com/collect...13-c6-corvette Here's a couple photos of the smoked ones on my Vette, when they're off they're black.
