I met a guy this weekend that is just starting an airbrush business. He is a young kit but OMG does he have talent.
Now I want to do something to my plain jane red z28 but I don't want to cross that line, if you know what I mean. I watched him paint flames, flying skulls, rusty looking metal, water drops, I can't even remember what all.
He told me some general prices & it will be dirt cheap.
Any ideas out from you guys. I wanted something different like maybe turbo related as I am boosted. The flames he does are cool looking, like true flames with smoke but I thought that may be too common IDK.

I've been thinking about airbrushing a design too. Yea it all depends on what you do if you cross the line to ricer lol. Post a few pics of your car it would help people give you some ideas =)

I was going to have some SS-350 emblems airbrushed on the back of my 94 SS clone vert where the z28 emblem was but done in white with chrome trim like the 1st gen ones but never could get the guy I wanted to do them to do it, prob one of the reasons he went out of buisness but MAN was he awesome.

So a full hood skull with wings plus flames off into the fenders would be overkill?

I don't really like airbrushed stuff unless you just have stripes or something done. I've never liked ghost flames. Not a big fan of regular flames unless you get something like this done:

I think the airbrushing only looks great when it's next to other show cars. In calendars or fbody meets, everyone loves the unique looking paint job.
In person on the street, airbrushing generally looks overkill. Maybe some small ghost flames but you're still pushing it.

get some old school pin striping on the berger panel on the left and right sides where it says Camaro. just something simple not over the top like something coming off the C and going to the left them the same design coming off the O and going to the right

I was at a summit car show last friday and saw something like that on this new mustang, it actually looked really weird, because the airbrushing was only in front of the engine bay then it cuts off lol. Oh that vette looks sweet!
