    I found this miniature (19.25" x 17.5") replica of a artwork by Brazilian artist Edu Danesi's life size copy of a Porshe 911 hood (info I've found call it a bonnet - so maybe from UK?) that he painted with Steve McQueen and his racing colors - it's called Gulf Victory - and the one I found has already sold for $1,000's!
    And I've found other car parts art by him as well.
    But not another one like this and this size?
    it also appears to have been signed by him? Could this be another 1 of a kind piece by him, but smaller?
    Do you think this was painted and/or signed by him?
    There is a small chip in the corner by his signature the you can see the fiberglass strands ut looks like this was made from, with a few blue strands from the paint? (does it show that it was painted & not just a print?)
    Any information, thoughts or help finding another example would be greatly appreciated!

    Below is what my Google search said about him & my hood/art (notice theres no 19 on the car as it's number like the ai says - that's part of what I put in the search - 19" tall)

    Edu Danesi is a Brazilian artist known for his work in Street Art, having transitioned from photography.
    The car bonnet in the image is a replica that combines the iconic Gulf brand colors (blue and orange), the vehicle number 19 (as seen on the hood), and potentially elements like Porsche and Recaro logos, aiming to evoke a racing atmosphere, particularly for Porsche 911 enthusiasts.

    When you list it, be sure to spell it "Porsche", with a 'c' after the 's'.
