    Well I was leaving it, but God said "let there be no red" and there was no red. It's a strange faded color now. So I gotta do something about it.

    In the after, if you're still shooting in HDR it naturally sharpens the picture so going in and doing more sharpening is bad.
    Personally, I'd stop using HDR if I were you. Just use te RAW files to correct the picture later and you should be fine.

    I'm not an expert at car photography yet but I'm pretty knowledgable about cameras and editing (mostly people)

    HDR? LMAO. No one knows were our cameras are, so I'm taking all my recent pics with this POS.

    It's like $20 and takes AA batteries, no zoom.

    And the sharpness, I think that's a property of Flickr itself, it makes the smaller resized images look sharper.

    Here's the full size!! :) It doesn't look too sharp.

    There's a few jean-button scratches/scrapes on both seats, nothing major though.

    That is where the back of your thigh is just above the knee... I've never seen buttons there on jeans. What kind of funky-ass pants are your passengers wearing?

    Well that bigger mark is the sun actually.... and I remember now, those scratches are from when I installed the radio because I placed in on the seat and it slid around.

    Gold the little white stripe on the passengers seat is what I'm talking about... You said it was the sun but the whole thing is practically in the sun already.

    Yeah I have no idea what that is, it's a reflection off something.

    Here's another picture, taken during the meet.

    changin mah oil while the hurricane's a blowin

    Honestly I don't remember the last time I changed oil.... it's been years. So this felt pretty good :)

    Lift car, drain old oil, remove oil filter with a plastic bag (no mess)

    Oil filter is in a weird spot, but it wasn't that hard actually. Again, wrap a plastic bag around it to catch all the oil! Worked like a charm :) New filter in place (looking from underneath:(

    Once the old oil is out, replace the drain plug and add new oil.

    Done! Good for 10,000 miles :D
