Almost Springtime Photos!
I got the chance to go out and take a couple pictures after pulling the cover off my 8. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean the car still was after 3 months of being under a cover. The last few, I messed with a little bit in Lightroom 3.3.
Handheld shots with Sony A330 18-55mm. Enjoy!

Thanks man, I've thought about it, but I've been procrastinating with mods lately, and ultimately want to get RPF1s.

Thanks man, I was definitely happier once I tinted everything. As far as mods go, next step is RPF1s with 285s on all four and koni yellows.

I've seen people do the 18x9.5 with 275/35-18 but i've yet to see 285/35-18. I'm on stock wheels with 245s as well. I'll be sure to post when I'm finished!

I definitely noticed that once I uploaded everything. I love your work and always have. I'm just now getting into photography, it's become a new interest of mine. Any other critiques would be greatly appreciated.

The lens on the camera? Just the basic 18-55mm that came with the A330.
