The questions worth asking first.

One will start it. Three or four make it noticeably better. The set we want is a front three-quarter of the whole car, a close-up of the grille and badge, and a close-up of a front wheel. If you only send one, we enlarge those areas out of it, which works, but a real close-up is the difference between your wheels and wheels that merely look like yours.

They are examples, and every one is a render we made. Any one of them could be your car instead. There is no stock photography anywhere on this site, and we never borrow a picture from one style to fill a gap in another. If a style has no example, it says "example pending" rather than showing you something else.

Then do not approve it. That is the entire point of the proof. Check the badge and the wheel, because those are the two things that drift. Tell us what to fix. Travel posters receive a new proof. Other styles receive two new versions. Nothing prints and nothing is delivered until you approve.

We render your car with AI, driven by your photographs, then check every detail back against them: wheels, grille, badges, stance, lights. We do not claim it is hand drawn or hand painted, because it is not, and because you would find out. What we do claim is that it is your exact car. That is the part we work hardest on, and it is the part you get to check before anything is final.

We rebuild it, every time. Rebuild lets us put the car in any scene at any angle and rebuilds the light and reflections to match the new place; the smallest badge script can occasionally need a free correction pass. Nothing is cropped out of your photograph and pasted.

Your own word built into the scene itself: painted on a workshop wall, standing in the sky, carved into stone, glowing as neon. You type it, you see the exact string, and you tick a box confirming that spelling before we build it. Two to fourteen characters, letters, numbers, spaces and hyphens. It is included free with any scene, and it is checked again on your proof before anything prints.

We do, from what you typed, letter for letter. The image generator is explicitly told to leave every text area blank; it never writes a word that prints. If your figures are your own rather than the manufacturer's, the poster prints them without saying where they came from. We will not print your dyno sheet dressed up as a factory claim.

Straight list, no small print:

• The scene compositions themselves. You pick from the catalog; we do not take custom scene requests yet.
• The aspect ratio.
• The car's colour or parts. We render it as photographed. A repaint or resto-mod version is an idea for later, not something we do today.
• The watermark on a print proof, until the print is paid for. A digital render never has one.
• More than one vehicle per poster.

The proof comes back in minutes, not days. We are deliberately not publishing a delivery promise for physical prints until we have shipped and timed real samples ourselves. When we can stand behind a date, we will print it here.

No, once delivered it is final sale, and that is exactly why the preview and the approval step exist. You see the whole image, clean and unmarked, at preview size before the full size file is released. If the preview missed a detail your photos show, the correction pass is free rather than a file you did not want.

Checkout runs through Stripe, the payment company behind millions of online stores. Cards work everywhere, and wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay appear when your device supports them. Your card number goes to Stripe, never to us. On a print you pay once, at the end, after you have approved your proof. A digital file is paid for up front.
