updated tuesday 18th
well check out the email i received from Ridergrapix, from Brian Rider himself

email
Actually, a couple customers sent us the picture(of your car) and asked us to do a similar design in vinyl. I was trying to find you on the forum but could not find the picture to be able to tie it to your name.

Would you like us to show your car on our website and make a note that the stripe was inspired by your car? We would be glad to add your name as well.

Thanks
Brian Rider

i thought that was pretty cool. i told him my buddy, my friend, Alan had just passed away 2 weeks ago, he said the would add alans picture to his website. now thats really cool.
