For those of you watching at home, Creative Graphics is the painter who did the "Batmobile" engine cover for me. They are the only people I would let touch my SSR with any paint project.

More Pics
Here are a few more as it goes thru the process.--------
It also has a wind suppressor with the SSR cutout done in turquoise and turquoise neon lights behind it.
The door panel after it is clear coated and the start of tailgate design before clear coating.

Just Picked up from Creative Graphics
We just went and picked up the Silver Belle from Creative Graphics. She turned out beautiful and very unique---a one of a kind.
He did an excellent job and kept us informed with updated pictures of all the steps during the process.

John Hardin does great work and is known for fantastic engine cover designs. He will ship to anywhere.

Any pictures of the "wind suppressor with the SSR cutout done in turquoise and turquoise neon lights behind it." Would love to see, it sounds great.
