Default Any S2000 Artwork or Garage Decorations?

Well I am currently transitioning into a house and I want to spiff up my garage. I saw a post from a guy on Facebook who does custom engraving on acrylic and wood who showed a small portfolio. His price included the frame and shipping and he was very professional and prompt with communication. I did get sent a rough draft that needed a few changes which he was very receptive to (it initially had CR wheels and what I thought was a circular AP1 exhaust though I may have been wrong, I wanted the oval shape to be more prominent if it wasn't there). This isn't an advert so mods just bare with me, I just opened this up and I am very happy!


I am really glad I made the purchase and I believe it will make a nice touch. Got me thinking though since I am continuing to think of ideas for decoration and personality for the garage. Do you have something similar you can share? Thanks and here are some quick pics.

I have one of these framed in my garage...
S2k poster

I also have a Ducati 916 poster signed by the photographer (I have a '99 996s), but not yet framed as the size is 44 x 70" and the glass is pricey at that size. One of these days...

I would definitely buy a t-shirt with the same line art of the car on it if such a thing was available. Looks sharp.

Thanks! I really like it and I think it will make a nice addition to the garage. The acrylic is very sharp and distinct and the frame is nice as well. It has a bit of heft to it but it is easy to securely hang up. Surprised no one else has replied with something of a similar nature.

This wouldn't happen to be Black Art Graphics, would it? I've got them bookmarked for a future order. http://www.blackartgraphics.com/

Presently, I have numerous posters, prints, and canvas prints of my own cars. Being an amateur photographer has it's advantages. If I were really clever I'd talk the owners of cars I admire into allowing me to photograph their cars so that I could hang those photos on my wall. I suppose I am clever; I just need to be an extrovert.

Those look great! I did an armature photo shoot of my old AP1 but it was just point and shoot with a DSLR. I thought about canvassing some of them but I think it'd be good interior decorating.


It was a guy named Kit who works for Engrave Colorado. Very easy to work with and he made minor adjustments to my liking and was great with communication along the way.

Looks great!

I like the ideas.


I don't have a link but a quick Google to Engrave Colorado should pull them up. You can IM for his specific contact info or specific questions though.
