If it makes up for what i said, i thought your car was beautiful when it was like this.

Gonna make an HDR picture out of that with photoshop and photomatix pro when i get home lol.

If I had another G, i'd def do one like that, something more sporty.

I'm actually gonna go that route in a couple weeks for a few months.

Gonna go with some Z 18's painted flat black with some meaty tires and put a spacer on them, 38mm if they fit lol. Otherwise I'll stick to tucked. Gonna drive without a front bumper too so I don't have to worry about scraping up my oem bumper...or maybe I'll just leave the OEM one so I don't attract attention from the cops. Gonna be lowering my car even more. Exhaust will scrape where the y pipe is but since I welded piping for the flex joints...no worries now. I'll also be doing a dual exhaust look after I put back on the Varianza's. Quad tip ftw.

1. People that don't mod the G yet they have an opinion on all mods
2. People that mod and expect the G to "be like stock"
3. roof spoilers on the sedan...I did it and then realized...what have I done!?
4. Overlays on headlights...just paint the bezels will ya
5. Billet grilles....eww

I was like Ash and did some of the hated on mods too but in the end, just do what you like. That's what makes moding so fun

Unless you're using a RAW file from a camera with a really good dynamic range (like the D300) then HDR off a single shot is fail.
Do it right tripod and 5 exposures a full stop appart + photomatix = WIN

You can do a little bit with a single raw file, but I really dislike the look of a jpeg that's been tonemapped.

I dislike the debadging.
-Im proud to own a car so nice and fun to drive.

Overmodding.
-"Overmodding" is a blurry line but it seems like some people might be better
off buying something faster, lower, with bigger rims, with more lights, etc.

But as long as the guy/girl driving it likes it...
