    I'm quite pleased about how this turned out.

    I have a few things I'd love to see changed (if you don't mind)


    1. Would it be possible to do this in a red version, preferably with a very shiny red ferrari.

    2. Could you set a red maple leaf in behind the Fukken Wax logo? Trying to tailor more to a Canadian audience. In marketing, I've found more Canadians tend to purchase when they see that maple leaf.

    3. The nav bar with the cross-hatch, and the cross-hatch in the background, I'd rather see something else. I know the old site had it. Wasn't really too fond of it.


    I know, it's likely a ton of work to do all that, and lots to ask of you.

    Other than that, it's gorgeous. :D

    Revisions as requested :) Not too hard except for incorporating a new car. Good Ferrari pics are actually hard to come by. The cross hatch is actually carbon fiber which is why I thought it accented the 'auto' feel of the site nicely.

    I swear, you're in my head.

    A few alterations:

    1. Remove the line of text under the maple leaf.
    2. Can you do a sample with the carbon fiber in the background only (through the gradient area). I'm curious how it looks with the red theme.

    Other than that, like I said, you're in my head. This is by far the closest thing to what I want.

    If this one wins, would you be willing to modify the header with a few different cars/trucks?

    Ok, so, I looked back over it and had some clients look over it and they pointed out the following things that should be changed:

    1. Remove the orange circle behind the Fukken Wax logo at the top.

    2. The home, affiliate login, and site map links are hard to read. Drop them to the first grey bar under where they are, and make the black and bold.

    3. Change NewsPromo to say "Special Offer:" without the quotes.

    4. Remove the AlertPay, Paypal, and Money Bookers image in the cart area.

    5. The footer links are also hard to read. They need to be darker.

    6. How will this page be situated for a background? As it currently stands, it won't look proper sitting aligned just left, nor centered. The nav bar there could span the whole width of the window, but the header won't look right that way. Can you situate this template on a background centered so I can see how it'll look?

    7. The main content font color and link colors are also hard to read, or at least to me. They blend in too much with the background.

    Hi Gydian, here's the revised one; http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/775/fukkencopyxo1.jpg
    I just adjust the "site map"... but i think it is best where it is located, and not put it into the brass bar.
    I add a new features "what our clients say... below. You might like it as for "come-on" to prospects.
    I pull-out the black background, to lay it in full page.

    I hope this completed your need. Let me hear from you.

    Thank you.

    Sorry bout the delay. Dinner with my mother yesterday went longer than I expected.

    I really like both templates. The one by envision is more suited for my Canadian clients. The one by robyn is more suited to my global clients.

    At this time, I'm going to have to name envisionIT as the winner of this contest.

    Hang onto that template though robyn, as I'll likely come talk to you closer to the end of next week about buying it as well.
