Aftermarket Car Parts Directory + Logo

Need creative designers to create an amazing unique website + Logo. Will be an aftermarket directory for car rims featuring reviews, videos and pictures. Prize for the winning site design is 400 and prize for the winning logo is 100 of if you can do both then you get the 500.

I also need about 4 subpages done, after main template is done but they are simple because they will use the same header and style just different content within it but that can be done after i pick the winning design.

SI

Desired Color Scheme:
Polished Steel / Carbon Fiber and Dark BG

Desired Style:
Carbon Fiber, and Metals

Accepted File Formats:
Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)

LOGO: Just to say si designed in a very web 2.0 style sort of. I want to see how you can combine a very high polished silver effect exactly like this ( Just look at the finish of the color)

NOW FOR THE WEBSITE PART:

On the homepage obviously need the logo and the header, logo top right i assume. navigation is very simple if we even need one at all just Home, register, and upload. Mabie you dont need it if you can design the rest well. The top right of the header should have an upload button or something of the sort designed in a nice finish. Also header should have a search bar to search exhausts.

Underneath the header area, i want you get try and get very creative, for this will be the most important area of where the user will "Choose Your Manufacturer" for the rim with a drop down of all the companies. I want this to perhaps be like a big formula 1 steering wheel and the menu in the middle of it or something like that.

Then somewhere on the homepage i will need the following items:

Box for "Most recent reviews", "Top Rated" and "New arrivals" also room for an advertisment, as well as a login area (small does not have to be prominent). Also a small register link somewhere perhaps top right of header.

As far as theme of the actual site i want to try and combine the exact styles that i gave for the logo which is high polished aluminum / steel like this with carbon fiber trimming for the tables / borders of things which is this finish here

As far as background you can keep it a dark theme. Race2ube.com is a nice example however just take a look at it and dont worry about it id rather you just create something yourself. I provide feedback everday and their will be a guaranteed winner and please remember once were done i will need about 4 subpages like the inner pages for the video listings and what not but they are very simple compared the homepage as its all the same template.

Thank you and i look forward to seeing great designs.
