not too fond of the first one. might be the sunlight, but it's too light grey. really does look primer.


never really been too keen on matte cars that aren't exotics.

might be just that the picture is overexposed, but i don't like the light grey primer.

We had a shooting last night with the IS220d, here a few pictures. It's not painted it's wraped I think it's a pretty hot ride for a daily. We made over 300 pictures and these are the first.

I just don't understand matte colored cars. They look unfinished. What's so great about that?

Great photos. I like the wheels. Have you considered adding a lip kit to your car?

It's not my car it's the car of a friend of mine I help last night making the pictures. I'm sorry but I don't know the exact name or manufacturer of the color. We talk about a lip kit but he drives around 60k km per year with this car and as you can see the road conditions are not so good so I don't think he will do that.
