There is a silver/gray looking coupe in the Garmin vehicles I was using, but this one is SO much better. Great work!!! Thank you

I know it's an old thread, but does anyone have this ZIP file? The download link is down again.

I actually wanted a red one so I downloaded the yellow one and converted it to a .png file. I edited the .png file to make the car red using Paint Shop Pro 7 (you use your favorite photo editor). I then converted the file back to a .srf file and uploaded to my Garmin.

Here is a website that will allow you to convert .srf to .png and vice-versa.
nüvi utilities

Here are the steps I took:

1. Download the attached zip file (found earlier in this thread)
2. Extract the yellow_370z.srf file
3. Upload the file to nüvi utilities
- Under Vehicle File Converters srf2png, click on "Choose File"
- select the yellow_370z.srf file you extracted from the zip
- click on "Convert it" and you can download the the .png file
4. Edit the .png changing the color of the car (you'll have to figure out how to do that based on the program your using)
5. Upload the file back to nüvi utilities, this time choosing the "png2srf" section
6. Once you've downloaded the new .srf you can hook up your Garmin and transfer it over.
