Let me know what you guys think of this. I had 500 made already for a car show that I did a little while back and still have some left. Before I get some more made up, I want to see what people think about them. I will also probably add a backside before they are re-done. Thanks in advance,

The website is not up yet but will be hopefully this weekend!

Looks nice, however we arent allowed to post our website and phone numbers directly :(...I know kinda makes the card pointless to post. But I really like the look of it, did you design it yourself or use a website?



-I really like the font used for Exotic
 
I think it looks very nice - clean and classy. You might get some sort of tag line on there or a touch more info. on what you offer.



I might also center the name and phone number.
 
Very high quality picture, the only thing I don't really like is the shifter. This is based on first glance, I see a shifter for a detailer. Is there a message behind it? I would switch out pictures, there is an aswome picture somewhere on this forum of the right rear quarter panel of a car that looks like the paint is liquid hot/fresh. Not saying use that picture but something that stands out and says D*** I want my car to look like that.
 
I like it a lot...BUT I don't think the shifter goes with detailing. It would be great if you had a performance shop or something. Maybe show the whole s2000 all shined up? But I use an old hot rod scketch for my logo so don't listen to me. LOL
 
The following picture is not mine it came from user: SpoiledMan

(I have to give credit when credit is due)



This is the type of picture I was talking about:

Looks great huh. :spot



This type of picture really catches your eye. :cooleek: :shocked
 
Thanks for the responses! I get what you guys are saying about it not really relating. I wanted to use a picture that I have taken and I could not find any that I thought would have gone better than this. I have some time to get more pics in before I do the cards again. I may see what else I can come up with.



I guess one of the reasons I chose this pic is because it a really close to the shift knob... Maybe showing that I pay very close attention to detail. I dont know just throwing something out there. hehe. I may be detailing a Ferrari this weekend so I might try to get a business card quaity pic of it. The bad part is, I pretty much have to set up a photo shoot to get a pic that I would want on the card. The background would have to be perfect and I dont really want to ask the owner to take more time out to go take pics. (though im sure he wouldn't mind).

WOW that is nice. I may try and take something like that. That way I dont have to worry about the background!
 
Well I have some friends who are pro's. I have an 8mp digital SLR myself so I dont really find it necessary to have to pay for the pics though. Its just going to take some setting up with the right car to get the picture I would want.
 
the card looks great, i would perhaps align the title so that the spacing of the text between the top and the side of the card are evenly spaced apart. it looks like the text has slipped from the top IMO. i dont think theres anything wrong with using an s2000 for your card but perhaps maybe use a shot of the paintwork would be more appropriate, even though the interior is just as important.

Thanks for the suggestion, I may play around a little with that as well!
 
Ever considered making the card vertical (Portrait)? Seems to me that a lot of space is wasted for a calling card... But great classy look bud :)
 
hhhmm never thought of that either. I may give that a shot as well.





There are a lot of great ideas you guys are giving me... Thanks a lot!
