Good work Clarence! You must be amazed at the progress your car has been through the last few years. :ok: Love that Brokeback Mountain pic. :biggrin:

Could I just point out a few things if I could? :pardon:

1. You're posting up your pics, not advertising. Must every pic (sans the action shots) have your signature on it? Very distracting. :tongue:
2. I thought you got rid of those JDM exhaust finishers? :unsure:
3. No mention of the exhaust, tires, eyelids, grille, front bar conversion, or slotted rotors? A mod should be something that you've changed/upgraded that was not on the car when you bought it! :derisive:

sorry clarence but +1 on the sig.
at the very least it should be about 1/4 the size.
if you look at the great artists from various mediums notice how big their signings are...
the car should be the main focus.
the quality of the pics are great though and improving with time and your experimentation.

I've only had the car for 15 months :P

The sig is part of the export process - I could change it but I'm too lazy :P it's also there for proofing reasons. It needs to be big enough that it can't be cropped - just something carried over from other photos. I might change the opacity to give it a bit more transparency though.

I did...? I painted the rear splitter, not sure if that's what you're seeing.

I was referring to those horrific chrome exhaust finishers you used to have before your front bar conversion. Or is 'JDM exhaust finishers' different?

thanks for the strut pic...... seems like it sits low to the floor of the boot... right? or is that just the angle of the pic.

thanks again

It's low, but not that low - my umbrella sits behind the strut brace :P

Hi Tangcla,

Your car looks awesome. Extremely well thought out and executed.
The small parts that fit behind each wheel like small mud flaps, are they JDM aero spats or JDM side strakes? and where did you get them from? Thanks.

Great pics as well.
