I normally don't like colored wheels, however copper certainly does complement blue-slate. And the little incidental details of painting the grille Fuji to match, and the (coincidental?) near-match of the NYS licence plates... that really, really looks good.

I love these pictures, Click-Clack. Ditch the rear plate frame, though.

Thanks, the front fuji is pain to do but it helps bring it all together. My license plate color was not considered while choosing a wheel color lol

Just took these today after a fresh wash/wax. Just lowered it a few days ago. I'm no photographer but this is the best I could come up with.

Looking great ClickClack, those color combos you've come up with go well, nice work.

Jumpman, nice drop and those coupe 19s always look great on the sedans. Try my DIY if you want the tails tinted, I can hook you up w/ the templates

jsheets, loving those Targas on your Sedan, great choice. STechs are a nice aggressive drop too, looking proper!

^ I tapped the windshield reservoir pump (solid green wire I believe). It only has power when the ignition is in the "On" position.

They're good pictures. Interesting perspective between the buildings, and a good angle on the car. All in all, your car looks fantastic in these shots. Clean and obviously modified, but not at all over the top.

The warehouses, while providing depth, are incredibly bland. I'm sure you guys could come up with a better location. The shot with you in the photo is a good shot of the car, without that annoying predisposition that primary content always be center-frame, however you look weird in the pic. Clothing aside, if you were walking away from the car, or not looking at the camera, or something. Know what I mean?

At the end of the day, it's a real nice thing to have professional photos of your car, and these certainly qualify.

Very nice, Mike.

Thank you John, I really do appreciate your full review/feedback (something I would've expected from you) as well as those kind words, I'm glad you like it..It does look clean and obviously modified but at the same time not over the top at all like you said which I like very much..

As to the warehouses being bland, I know we could have come up with a better location but it was getting late, and honestly all in all it was a spontaneous idea I just came up with at the end of the day at work and suggested the photo shoot idea to my friend Dan and he agreed, therefore after I had to wash my car and make it look good ASAP and rush to drive around in the area to find a decent spot to shoot some pictures before the sunset, and as to me looking weird in the picture, I know, I wasn't really posing or anything, but he just told me to go next to the car and stand approximately in that spot as seen in the picture although there were several different poses and many more different pictures as he shot many photos yet it is very time consuming to edit them to turn them into perfection which he denies and he isn't really happy with them while I keep telling him otherwise that they came out really good. Stay tuned for more pictures!

Also I'm pretty glad how it is coming along especially after seeing these shots, I'm happy that finally I have a car worth taking the effort of shooting professional-like photos( as he doesn't really do it for a living yet more as a hobby)

I'm not gonna sweat about spacers for now, as I have plans to get different this time aftermarket wheels which probably won't go on the car till spring anyway even if I got them before winter. As to these IPL wheels, spacers in the back would only make it rub and hit the fender, as it is pretty close to the fender, at least to me. but fronts could definitely use some spacers but like I said It's none of my worries right now.

Thank you Brad ! really appreciate it ! and stop tempting me !!! I think you really are right about the Maroon calipers but then what's gonna happen to the accent color?

I'm getting custom headlights soon, and my plan was to get the lambo orange eyelid in the headlights as well as lambo orange calipers later, but that Maroon red would really look sick on calipers really contrasting well against the graphite and midnight tail lights, yet I don't know if I would like a maroon red eyelid in the headlights , that's something that I'm not sold on... yet

Mike, it's all the quandaries that come along w/ trying to put together a complimentary vehicle theme that makes this so much fun. Although stuff like this will keep you up at night
Look forward to see what turns up from all those sleepless nights, lol.

I really do like the idea of maroon calipers, that is a really great idea.. would've never thought of that honestly... but the thing is I just don't want that accent maroon red color to get lost on just calipers themselves, it'd need to be somewhere else as well and that makes it a bit complicated.
