Yeah, as soon as the weather cooperates, I will clean up my car and take some more pictures. I took several when I took this one, but the others weren't up to my standards in photography :). My car is just too shiny :D . I will say this on the CFs they darken the back end of the car and at night they give the car a very different look.

Also Chi, you should register, so as not to be a guest. We need more midwestern Solara guys :).

Yeah, I will post them, if I can get my digital camera not to wash them, or distort due to lighting intensity. Wish I could hook up the N65 to my computer :). Anyway, weather permitting; I'll try to get both night and day shots up this weekend.

In some ways I have to agree with you 2. Personally, I don't think the shiny ones look so good, especially on silver. Granted, I think silver is a horrid color. :) Also, I don't like the reflective surfaces, so my opinion is pretty biased and therefore invalid.

Here is my plan. This summer, I am going to smoke the CF's. I am ordering some black wheels this week, haven't picked which ones yet. This should look pretty stealthy. If not, I can always go back to stock :lol: .

I generally look at it this way. It's your $20,000+ car. Do whatever you like, except driving on the sidewalk! :lol:

Also, for those who care, there will be no pictures this weekend. Well, I could take pictures of a great mound of snow in my driveway. :x I wish this snow would stop.

:lol: Might bend the RSB, or worse tear up your struts. Also, you might have to take one of those sobriety tests. :drinking:


Really, I mean to say: As long as you don't harm anyone else, as in being reckless, or whatnot. IMO that's the only truly <B>bad</b> thing you can do with a car.

yeah, i was just messin. but there are other bad things you can do other than drive on the sidewalk that will harm other people. as far as looks go, do whatever you want, but when it comes to driving however you want, thats another story.

I have some nighttime pictures up on cardomain.com. Actually, getting my car to stay clean for more than a few hrs is still being crazy, so nothing new on the daylight pictures. Sorry. :( I wish it would be spring, so I could take lots of pictures. (And do about 5 more projects that are sitting in my driveway.) :)
