He said he wanted something cool to hang on his wall. I'm going with this. I think it's so cool that I want one now too.

I love Porsche wall art, it's a very underrated form of art. Your son will love it, I gave my son a print last year. My brother had ordered it and didn't like it, so little Max got it and loved it. I'm also partial to hanging Porsches on walls...

Thanks guys! I liked how it came out and had to share it with some folks who would appreciate it. The wife was like, "Well, I hope he likes it for what you spent on it."

The trunk lid was one of just a couple things I salvaged off a car that was about to break in half up in salt country. Being red I tried for a Brumos/Strenger look with a little more pizazz.

That really looks great. Lucky young man. I'm currently painting and powder coating an engine lid with lettering for wall art. Wife says it's not going in the house. We'll see...

The red is painted but the rest is vinyl. They could have done a wrap but the paint was decent enough. I buffed it out so it got its shine back first.
