Scenic Drive in my G

Stopped at Blueridge Parkway in Shannendoah national park in Virginia towards the end of winter. I took some pictures but never got around to posting them. Still learning how to use the camera so they aren't too great.

Great Photos! Are you running the factory 8.5 wide wheels on the front or all four 9in? Or do the 15mm spacers make them that wide? The factory wheels look sweet!

I hate it but they wouldn't let me pass inspection without it. Dealer drilled the plates even though I told him I wanted to zip tie it to the grill for inspection. Someone hit my car in a parking lot the first night I had it (temp plates) and left an impression of the license plate mount on my bumper so now I can't really remove it even though I want to.

haha thanks guys. It cost me 8 dollars, did it while I removed the bumper to install the intakes. No sanding, 2 road trips later, ZERO chips.
I'll take close up pictures but its actually a rubberized texture that can't chip. It's called PlastiDip and you can get it at Lowes. I did not sand or prime the bumper. I just hit it with 5 coats, no clear and stuck it back on.

The spacers make it look like that. But I'm actually considering trading my 8.5 fronts for 9's all around.

I actually shot it with the kit lens wide out at 18mm. Just had the camera vertical and centered the frame on the road between the pothole and the car. I was kneeling down from about 30 feet away.

I need to do some scenic driving too, but my boss keeps asking me to work during weekends

Yea I'm on the fence about tint. I don't like the loss in visibility and I don't want to mess with cops. Legal limit is 50% in the front and 50% tint is worthless.

Camera is a Nikon D3000

Scenic drives are awesome
I just wish I had some sways
