For...?

Have you tried Google Image Search > Large?
Short of that, find a real car of whatever make/model it is that you're after and take your own pictures.

I've blown up an Aero88 mod Monte Carlo to a massive 4096 res. I have gotten everything to come up well except headlights and tail lights. They get blurry as I blow them up so I'm looking for something else. And yes I tried Google but not much luck

Yeah...enlarging never will work. Especially not when you're doubling something. Back when I was doing a lot of hand-drawn graphic work for printers I learned early on to draw at least 50% (if not 100%+) larger. Scaling down will always 'tighten' the work up.

As for Monte Carlo head & taillights...I'm guessing an '88?
Maybe one of these...

Also check out the downloadable catalogs from http://www.arbodies.com/downloads & http://www.fivestarbodies.com/store/index.php?p=page&page_id=downloads . I opened page 20 of the NGB_website catalog @ 900dpi, resized the '88 Monte temp to 4096, cut around the catalog headlight, dragged it into the template and it was at least twice the size it needed to be. Did the same thing with page 17 from the Five Star catalog but the image quality wasn't as good.

This stuff is out there. If I can find it so can you. All of these were found via Google.
