Chuck, thanks man! Your car convinced me to start modding after I saw your eibachs and spacers lol. I still need practice but I'm progressing I think.

I shoot with a Canon T1i and all of those pics were taken with a 50mm 1.8 prime lens. I shot in Aperture priority mode, all on a tripod. Speaking of that, I need a better tripod, most of my lower level pics were clean, but the taller ones had camera shake due to the wind.
All but 3 pics were edited in RAW, but I only changed white balance and a little noise removal. All other editing was done in JPEG in PS CS3

Ahhh the good ol' $100 lens that takes crisper shots than 95% of the other lens'. I use it mostly for low aperture shots of my dogs and things. I'm still a photo rookie and haven't thought to use it on my car with a higher aperature. What was it set at ? 12ish?

Also how do you keep your front bumper so fresh. Mine has so many chips !!! These the best photos I have seen. With 98intrigue and nitrous with his 40th pictures right behind. I have to get my chipped bumper fixed and take some shots with that lens. Tripod is a must though as that lens does not have iS. I have a rebel xsi, but my girls cousin has one of the top of the line cameras with all different L lenses and I asked what the best lens for my camera would be and he said the 50 1.8mm. Now I know why!

If I inspirred you to go spacers and a drop you've now inspired me to do stollen lip, eve sides, and shine rears haha. So don't me mad when my cars the white version of yours. Lmao

Youre cars now my iPads background. ...
