I don't know when you got into photography exactly, but I remember your early stuff and your skills have mutated into something freakishly good. I hope you can shoot my car someday. Love the latest photos, whatever lens and refinishing you're doing is working for you, and the car.

I'd like to see more photos of your reupholstery work, and some of the other finer details, like the polished goodies. And an engine bay shot is always a pleaser.

I second what Chris said. I'm always really impressed with your photos. I'd love to learn how to do the light painting like you've done before...

Thanks. Yeah Ineed to try shooting at a track some time. I've never tried and I'd love to do a drifting event.

Thanks Chris. I've been into photography for almost 4 years now.
I really thought I'd be a lot farther along with my car and be able to come up to Kentucky this summer but my job situation still sucks. Been working at chikfila for a month now which blows. About to quit that and start working at advanced auto parts. I barely make enough to pay bills.
One day though, I'll have some wheels and I'll make an effort to come up there

Well I'm never done with my interior and I haven't mastered how to take photos inside a car but here's the only shot I have which is outdated already

Thanks. Light painting is actually really easy. Just need a tripod for long exposure and a light you can move around. Wearing black helps. The hardest part is just dealing with street lights

I may give it a shot then, I'm picking up the car today from the shop near my parents house. It's in the middle of nowhere so no streetlights

I'm surprised to hear that. A lot of my friends are engineers and haven't seem to have had too hard of a time finding jobs. But job markets vary from state to state. I'm sorry to hear things haven't worked out the way you'd hoped. When you do land a job in your field, I know you'll be very happy.

The shaved IM looks soo nice sitting in your bay, and works nicely with the polished heat shield. Did the window switch plates come ivory from the factory? I thought they were always woodgrain or flat black.

Where did you get your Accord pedals btw?
