    Thanks guys :) I went to a meet today, we'll see what kind of pics come from that.

    You can't see the rear bumper in the previous pics? Don't worry, lots more pics are in order :) I want to do another fall photoshoot like last year :)

    I find a lot of cool stuff on there... And a lot of garbage ^^ and I just looked at the pic, and it has 14 likes in 20 hours. The likes have definitely tapered.

    I imagine people only look at the pics when they get posted, no one's looking at old stuff.

    Yeah, LightRoom. Gooooosh I'm so tiredddddd but I've been messing with it for hours.... got an "after" shot. Basically, cleaned off all the grainy-ness and brightened up the dark areas, like the bottom of the car and the grille, parts that never came out right before.

    before

    after

    Thanks Mack!!! Yeah I don't normally take close shots, but I guess I was trying something different.

    Here's another picture I took at the same time, and again, showing before & after effects in LightRoom.

    Yeah actually I'm going to get rid of the red, for some reason it has suddenly faded. I'll probably do some kind of carbon-fiber overlay, maybe with an L in the middle.

    Yeah it's "matte" instead of glossy, and now that the car is actually clean, and the photo is sharp, it's obvious. Though I did get a lot of compliments on the matte look lol. I will try to buff it soon.

    Yes, all the way no problem. Just a slight rubbing, nothing harmful though :) Though I couldn't do fiberglass fenders lol.
