Default My wash/wax photoshoot

took some time today to wash and wax my car. Then I figured, why not break out the real camera and take some pics?

I know, I know, it needs a spacer out back

Not feeling those headlights, but everything else is a go!

Yea I know, but my stock ones are getting delined. Also they were all corroded inside, so I have to send those off to get re-chromed.

With these ebay headlights, I'm replacing those blue bulbs with white LED's and going to put LED turn signals in to get rid of the yellow reflection from the bulb. Should look alright when they are completely clear

I'm going to do it myself with 800-2000 grit sandpaper and PlastX to finish it up. I'm actually thinking about getting www.tiradocustomcoatings.com/index.html out of seguin to do a silver powder coating for the headlights. A little less bling ya know?
