Did you take that with a disposable camera, get it developed, and then scan it to your computer with a 20 year old scanner?

 

Washed up the Velocity Red !



My other Velocity Red ?

 

Nice 8!

So i cant tell the differance anymore is that a GLI, or a jetta or a passat?

Just wanted to mention all of those pics are rolling shots at mostly high speed. no special rig. just me holding my camera out the window taking pics like a mad man.

 

Just got my new camera! Still figuring out how everything works, these low light shots have a lot of grain.

 

Lower ISO, find better matched aperture and shutter speed.

 

 

Having some fun with long exposures, still learning things on this camera!

 

New 2005 Car.
3 Days of polishing so far. Finish is as good as new. Maybe better? The gold spec really really comes through.

No this is not photoshopped. I only used my iPhone.



Hehe. Doesn't she look HAPPY??

 

Love those rims. Why does it look gold?

 

My previous 2005 RX8 had gold rims. This one, has... the black and red.

 

No I meant your paints hue?

 

Now I know why I don't have an Iphone,

 

That's the gold speckle in the paint. The iPhone picked up the gold speckles that way. Normally, they aren't that visible. But, again... it's not like I haven't seen this before on other cars. Car polishing makes the clear coat much more transparent.
I have lots of photos of my car, and in some the gold really comes through. Now though, after being freshly polished... they reeeally come though on the iPhone camera.
I'm not the only one on this board that polishes their car. I'm sure I don't have to explain the difference between wax and polish. Everyone knows.... right?

I've been polishing for 3 days, with a Ultimate compound and with show car glaze. I put down my rotary-buffer and just stuck to my orbital-buffer... which takes a lot longer, but... with this car, I really don't mind.

I think I'm still labelled as the local clean fanatic. I run a car polishing business on the side. It's fun. Well, for a nut like me I guess. If the paint isn't crazy good on my own car, who's going to want to hire my skills?

 

Enjoy...

 

I think Leesha wants to know how you came to have the custom paint job with the gold flecks.

 

 

Omg beautiful house. Love palm trees. Where is this? Florida? Opps nvm just saw it in your sig.
