Man I'm falling in love w/ your car bro.. Love that color and the black accents.. PERFECT!!!
Do you have a digital SLR? If so, get a circular polarizing filter for your lens.. Your paint would look SO milky.. It would control your reflections..

thanks man, i actually commented on that at the top of page 5 and yes my car is my daily driver, all day every day. but from riding around for a couple days now with it the quality seems fine to me, it does vibrate slightly towards the rear vent at 75-80 mph on the highway but i think its just because theres nowhere for the air to escape to at the back vent so it causes a slight vibration. the hood does flex under pretty decent pressure in the middle but as i stated before if i ever run into any sort of problems with it because of that then i will find a way to stiffen it up or make a brace to attach to the underside of the hood to help make it stiffer.

ok six comments:

1. You need tails like mine
2. You better invest some cash at zainostore.com
3. I do have a polarizer, it is just a little $30 piece that screws onto any lens (you would need a Nikon one)
4. I need some blacked out headlights
5. Go Mavs!
6. Car looks good!

1. yes i know i need some blacked out tails, ive been searching the forums trying to find a pair thats already done lately but not much luck. i kind of like the way it looks right now though
2. ive already been researching some of the zaino stuff, ill have to check out your collection for more advice
3. Bring your car down here already and lets do a photoshoot with all of your different lenses.
4. As stated above, get yourself some blacked out headlights and pick up some sport sides already and come do a photoshoot with me
5. Yes, Go Mavs! definitely a great end to the game last night
6. Thanks Brother man, im pretty happy with how it turned out, as well as some of the shots that i took.. ive been trying to find a few new locations here in town and still got a couple more to go shoot. i still think a good shot would be downtown ft worth on the old cobble stone roads if you can ever find a time to do it without traffic out there

I'm digging it. Now I know what my car would look like if I decided on this color, haha.

ha ya, it definitely turned out good and is a real head turner everywhere i go. i love the blue and how it changes shades as you walk around the car and light hits it at different angles.

that color is sick! Did you install the kenwood screen yourself or did a shop do it? Can you say how much it cost if you did it at a shop? Also do you have the navigation that came with the car?
