Default Thinking of changing the appearance of your car?

If you are thinking of changing wheels, color of your car, custom stripes, lowering your car, bigger wheels, etc..

Then send me a high quality digital picture of your car and what you would like done, and I will see what I can do. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I would preferably like a picture up against a plain background if you want your car lowered. For wheel changes a side shot is prefered. And pictures of the car's color, wheels, stripes you like would also make it easier and faster for you. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Hey, there are pictures in my sig, all good quality digital pics. If possible, id like to see what a set of silver Z06 wheels would look like. And also if possible, in the same pic, silver racing stripes, Berger style. Thanks in advance!

Edit: And in another seperate set, could you have all the same items as above, but with the GM ground affects kit on it, with the SLP quad exhaust w/ rear facia.

Thanks for offering to do all this work, ive seen your work.. you're damn good.

How 'bout some "Fat" spoke 97-99 C5 wheels on a 2002 silver Z28, and if possible, the same wheels in black. I have 4 18x9.5s and 2 17x9.5s, I am thinking of running the 4 18s all the time, and the two 17s for some DRs....thanks, Shawn

I'd like to see a pic of my car (you can use your own photo's... my car looks like yours without the blue stuff) with a set of charcaol colored Z06's... 18's all around. Also a pic with a set of ROH R/T "Black Ice" rims.... also in 18 inch. I'm having trouble deciding on what wheels to get. I want 18's... that's all I know. I'm rolling on 16's right now as I sold my WS6 rims for $$$ and plan on using the 16's for stickies.

Jsears - I want some HRE 545's on my SS. 18's on the front and 19's in back. Could you also try and put a hockey stripe down the side just to see what it looks like. Something similar to the Sprewell Racing Camaro but in white.

Thanks so much!

Here are some pics to work with. I have a few more in my sig if needed.
