it was in the mid 70's and not a cloud in the sky. Perfect weather for cleaning the car!



I left my previous process on the car. it can be found in my sig. I do some minor little things though



OCW on the paint

AIO'd the windows

Meg's Endurance on the tires



I also vacuumed out and 303'd the inside but I have no pics of that.

I don't know how much you are in to modding, but that wheel gap could make a man cry... I vote you lower it...
 
Nice car, but I hope you'll accept some feedback on your photoshoot:



Your pics are dark overall, and are slightly blurry.

You need to fill the frame more with the subject.



Some sharpness and "crisp" would take these pictures to a whole new level.

I love your car though!



Keep up the good work.

I agree, thats buick territory! :eek:



nice looking car though, and I envy you and your weather. :(
 
It will be lowered soon.... I got some tein s-tech lowering springs for Christmas. 2.4 inch drop in the front and 2 inch drop in the back. I also can't stand the 4x4 stance lol



The crappy picture quality is due to my camera and lack of a tripod. I just got the camera (Kodak Easyshare C315) for christmas but it's going back to the store sometime this week. I has no optical zoom whatsover, and digital zoom sucks. as you can see, even when not using the zoom, the picture quality isn't the greatest. I'm going to order a canon S2 IS and tripod when I can spare a few bucks. I also don't have the steadiest of hands so camera shake is a problem.



I actually talked with the rent-a-security guard at the entrance and he was cool with it as long as I didn't go into the buildings.



Atticdog- Same car, different color. You have indigo ink pearl, I'm Nautical Blue Metallic. Close enough though :D



Sometime within the next week I'll be taking more pictures at another old factory with my car, and my friends turbo'd integra and another friends show accord all of which I've taken care of. A nicer camera and a tripod will be used, so expect better pictures :D Feedback is greatly appreciated guys.

HAHA! When I went to take some pics of my car in a factory (box factory), me and my brother got stopped and talked to by a cop (who called for back up lol) and wanted to know what we were doing. We told him we were taking pics of my car and he didn't believe us even after showing him all the pics! When back up came he (the backup) just let us go and then questioned the original officer about why he did that. The orginal cop took all of our info too and told us if its broken into (keep in mind its a box factory) then we will be called in for questioning. LOL What an idiot!

Got some great pics though.

BTW Neo, the car looks great! I've always liked those TCs and I agree with others, drop it. ;)

Helpful hint....your feet make a great zoom lens-move closer! :LOLOL



Believe me, when I first started taking pictures, I would have been happy to have my pictures turn out as good as yours. ;)



Car looks very nice though. :)
 
Nice looking car. They should release those over here.

Too bad about the camera, looks like the sun was high in the sky which doesn't make it any easier. An S2 IS will definitely be a nice step up.
 
I did use that XAT image compressor/optimizer thingy on the images... maybe that's why they turned out somewhat blurry. But hey, I'm running dialup here. I didn't want to be sitting here for an hour uploading 1 meg pictures :D

Keep your pics in the 750 x 506 range, you should be able to get them down to around 100 kb with no more than 50% compression and jpeg quality of 90-92. :)
 
Nice car and nice background. However it looks like a scene out of a Sopranos episode, I expect to see someone get whacked and shoved in the truck of a car. LOL! THe Kodak C315 is a VERY basic camera, I bought one in a combo pack with dock and printer for $200 for my Aunt for Christmas. Moving from a $99 camera to a $500 will make a huge difference! I recently bought a Canon S2 IS and absolutely LOVE THE CAMERA!
