I took this one tonight after driving around looking for new spots and thought the picture came out pretty good. Constructive criticism of the car and photo are welcome.

Hey there!

Well, in the lighting that you used, you can certainly tell you hit a lot of bugs with your front facia :) Beyond that, I like the pic.

I'm not a fan of tinted headlights. I would recommend black projectors or black stockers over tinted. Sorry...

Otherwise, I like it. Black rims look slick.

i agree windows and a bath, or at least a "touch up" before a shoot.. other than that i think it looks sick as hell..

as a far as if you where just out looking for a good spot and this was the test pic, then i think you have a great spot and after prep for an actual shoot, you will be good to go..

I was just driving around looking for new spots to take pics, so the car wasn't really detailed ahead of time, and it was an unlit area which made it difficult to get a good shot.

Tint, SPO grills and an SE lip are on the to do list.

The headlights have the tinted nightshade covers from PFYC. I like the look, but its hard to see at night.

The wheels are stock, I sanded them down and painted them with a gloss engine enamel. They aren't flawless, but they aren't bad.

I like the look

Not every car has to be clean to take a picture. Dirty cars are fun too

LOL @ the people telling you to get window tint...your windows are rolled down

I think I missed this comment before. What do you mean about blacking the background in the lower part of the bumper grill?

I used krylon fusion on both my stock fascias.

The hole in the bumper is what happens when you are in a parking garage and park on ice in front of a 4 inch I-hook, as well as a couple holes from the plate bracket.

My first thought was an SE or inferno front lip. I've never been crazy about big lettering on the windshield so I would say take that off and tint the windows. I like the rims too.
