Default Any person in Chicago own this IS?

Was looking through Google and came by this IS that is gold. Don't know if it's painted or wrapped but looks good. Couldn't help but notice the background is in Chicago. Anyone here know who owns this?

It could very well be photoshopped. Pretty easy to do with a picture of a black car or any other dark color.

I mean, who would do that to a car and keep the factory wheels and height?

How much does something like that cost?? Ive been seeing the color chromed wraps online a lot recently, they look awesome. The blue or green would be sick on a sportscar.

we can do colored chrome, but the price just for materials is really high, plus chrome vinyl is very difficult to work with, and it's taking about 3 times more labor hours than regular wrap vinyl. total price would be around $6000 for colored chrome, for any other (gloss, matt, metallic, frozen colors, brushed metals, carbon fibers, variochrome, leather textured) you looking around $2000-$3500.
if you have any questions you can find our contact information at (No links here). thanks
