New Pics!

This past weekend I decided I needed some new pics of the ride now that it is different so I went driving around and snapped a few shots.

Full gallery contains 40 pics: http://www.auto-focus.us/autoblog/v/...bello/8-31-07/

Very nice photography. But, I miss the detail of your ride with the shaddows and/or glare. Step away from the Zaino, then retake them so we can see the car. (LOL)
Oh, Love the Agt47 mods.

lol, its actually because I took them in the middle of the day and most shots I could not keep them from being completely washed out. I wouldve shot them in the morning but I slept in and then had to go to work so I couldnt wait until later. However some of the more washed out background close up pics do show some detail and thats why I kept those. Just click the link.

oh and btw I use Meguiars, Zaino IMO just doesnt cut it.

I like it all except for the taillight bezels....ur car would look badass w/ some blacked out tailights or maybe even black bezels, imo. but yes, badass nonetheless. any more plans for performance/engine upgrades?

thanks everyone

the locations were all withing a couple miles of my place, in fact the third one down in my original post is just around the corner from my place and the exact spot where those kids threw that chain at my car

I still have tons in store for this car, next will be a bunch of suspension upgrades and big brake kit, then hopefully a whipple, keep going back and forth if I should go long tubes or not and much much much more...lol

and the wheels are boze pro tourings (forged). if you are interested I can get you a set, I deal in Boze and DPE and a couple other brands.

what do you do about headlights? are you using just the fogs, or are you using headlights in their place? I have the same ram air kit, but am using the fogs with silverstar bulbs and it works OK but I miss my brights....

Very nice car! I like the shaved handles very sweet! Are you going to install a lower grille for that fascia or just leave it open and cross your fingers that nothing hits your radiator?

I use just the fogs and they so far are more than enough. I also have the A47 grill which pushes them further apart.

dunno what Im gonna do with the lower grill, I like it open all it needs is an intercooler behind there..lol
