I'm curious, is that hand painted and cleared?
Or is it done in vinyl application?
Thank you! All hand painted with a little paint brush by me. That is why I showed a few pics, like when I started painting the black rose lettering and also a rose with 1 coat of paint on it then a pic after 5 coats. Did you see all 11 pics??? Silver takes alot of coats, lol.

You should consider doing that full time? That looks so friggn awesome!

Thanks! Well, I do have an art album here in my profile that has been there a few years but nobody here has wanted anything done. I used to bump that I do artwork but never got any interest here.

very nice work on a very deserving car. It shows that you care about your car and put the extra little attention to detail that most people over look. You have a beautiful car

Yes, paint brushing silver on black takes even more coats than white on black. It took a while to keep going over again and again. Then after that I did white highlights and red shading outline for that extra pop when you look at it up close.
