Very good pics!! The idea of showing someone how their ideas for modifications would come together would be a great idea. I think if you had a seperate charge for concept drawings as opposed to full prings of the actual car, you could have two different services. Assuming that you would charge less for the concept as opposed to the actual car as people would want it for more of a reference of what their car would look like. I would say sell the digital images of the concepts online and then create prints of the actual cars to mail out to the customer or make available digitally for an additional charge.

I'm in for 3. Let's get this off the ground. I'll want one of my car, another of my wife's car, and one with both of them. Let me know when you get this going.

Josh I cant see any reason why your idea wouldn't float. Your work looks of quality, the price is reasonable, and the fact that you are an actual designer for GM adds a little of that extra cool factor for the purchaser in my opinion. I say jump in with both feet. I would also like to give you a simple thank you for designing what has turned out to be the funnest car I have ever owned. I've had faster but still didn't enjoy them like I do my SS.

To whoever did that Cruze SS concept, I think it's killer and that could easily be my next ride if GM where to run with it. Make it a Rear wheel drive and I'd sell my first born to own it haha.

Well I think this quick research excercise confirmed my suspicions, that this could actually work as a little side job / hobby. Now I know a few of you were chomping at the bit to do something, feel free to contact me through PM and I can work with you to try and schedule you.

ps, I am glad you like your Cobalt, I like it too. In fact I just went and got another one, this time a 2008 Victory Red SS TC. And I am anxiously awaiting to make it faster.

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it. Lets talk. PM me if you want to do something.

BTW, does anyone know if I am breaking any site rules by soliciting services on here without being a supporting vendor?

Technically yes, but as long as you don't post up prices, and say a website, you should be good to go. Also, since a moderator has already seen it, i think you're good. Becoming a supporting vendor is apparently very difficult and time consuming, not to mention expensive.

I guess all that means is keep it on the DL.
