    Hello. My name is Ted Parkes, and im a freelance 3d modeler. I'm currently modeling a Ferrari 308 gts, and after its done, ill do the modifications to make it a 328 gts. You can see some pics of my progress here...
    http://tedparkes.slibe.com

    Im making this post to ask a favor of you 308 and 328 owners. Ive searched the web and google thoroughly for a high resolution picture of the taillights on the 308 or 328. So im asking if one of you can take a picture, pretty close up and high res, if possible, that i can use as a texture for the taillights. I only need 1 side of the car as ill just copy the mesh with the texture on it to make the other side. I realize this is asking one of you to go out of you way, and unfortunatly, all i can offer in return is to give credit and thanks wherever i post the final result.

    Thank you very much, and I hope one of you can help me.

    well thanks for replying, i already saw that, sadly they wont work....what i really need is an up close pic of the lights pretty much straight on if possible....the bigger the pic the better...but if the lights pretty much look like circles in the pic, eg, no angle to them...they should work....

    thanks again, and i hope someone can help...

    Wow thanks to both of you....

    impacto...my email is [email protected] send it when you get a chance...or, if you want, and it might be easier, go to www.slibe.com and upload it there...then email me the direct link it gives you...

    you may have to register, but it only takes a second, and you can upload as many pics as you want of any size for free...a friend of mine runs the site..and i use it all the time...just make sure you dont click resize image...

    that last pic is pretty much perfect... if i need any other pics, is it ok to come here and ask again?...

    oh and ill put a thanks to you for the pic...it will make a great texture...

    thanks again and i may be back again for a different texture maybe....

    Ok heres another request....the rear body under the bumper...
    http://www.slibe.com/image/df5ae876-driverrear_jpg/
    if possible a pic of a 308 and a 328 would be great, as i know they are different...

    also a closeup of the stripe from about the angle of this render...and some info....is it a seperate part inside the body panels, or just a dent painted black?...
    http://www.slibe.com/image/286e5152-stripe_jpg/

    these dont really need to be in real high res as they are just for reference...

    thanks again...

    The black stripe is a squared off dent, painted black on the back 'wall' only. The upper and lower horizontal edges are body colored.

    just a couple of close up pics with the lights up, and maybe 1 or 2 with them down also...would be great....

    also if you can, a pic or 2 of the the front bumper/grill area, as you can see, i havent even started that yet lol...

    if you guys can help me again, it would be great....thanks
