BIG props to the rest of the cars pictured as well. So many nice mods to represent the different GS colors, owner's tastes, etc. but the end-products come together VERY well for you all.

i haven't taken any recent pics but here's an older favorite.
Black GS + RMM kit = classic winner

Default thanks

I really have not done too much lately on the outside, except carbon fiber pillars. the stereo was redone, and well the the interior is coming, but I am trying to work on a few things up my sleeve. Moving and living in ct is expensive. I have been checking out some s-class mirrors, and maybe a body guy I know could mold and morph my mirrors into signal ones. but thanks for the compliment.

This was a fun shot- tripod definitely required.
Digital cameras are great because I was able to adjust the exposure and instantly tell
if the image was any good. This took several tries to nail the correct exposure.

This was a cool shot, too. Low light levels are tricky to shoot, but can yield gorgeous colors.

Notice the LED city lights in my amber turn signals? They are wired to the parking lights.
It's subtle... this has been a trademark of my cars since I was sixteen.

Another thing I always try to do is to minimize reflections in the car's paint finish.
This is especially difficult with darker-colored cars.

Overcast days or daylight hours when the sun is close to the horizon are perfect for this.

Here you can see the mirror-look in the hood and the glow of the car's lights.
The sun is just about down over the horizon, creating a terrific amber-orange glow.
