uncle_el : 1993 Accord LX

[k-mart]

yea, been working on panoramic shots over the last week... hopefully the next time we have a shoot, i can put together some good ones... it'll allow for some different possibilities as far as composing/arranging shots.

ah yea, most def

and i see you got the lip on, how'd the instal go?

the install was a little more difficult that anticipated actually. h23accord and i raised the car up on jack stands, got the old bolts off (since none came off when the greddy lip came off). the holes on the outer edge matched up, as did the ones in the middle... but since the bumper is an aftermarket replacement (i.e. not oem), i think the holes are a little off... err, it wasn't made to install the bolt and nut easily- the space was very very tiny, but we were able to get it done.

i thought it would only take 20 minutes or so, and i think it took us about 45 minutes give or take.

and it looks much better. she was missing having a lip, lol.


edit:
all shots and panoramic shots i posted earlier - it's a lot of damn pictures, but if you're interested in what it takes to "make it" happen go ahead and take a look.

thanks, and thanks for the great price too!

i don't always have a lot of patience, but i'm trying to gain some through photography, lol. i've found it easier to take more shots than necessary to get a good/perfect panorama... it's easier to discard unnecessary photos rather than drive back and take new ones!

as i try to do more panoramic shots, i'll probably find the nice medium between getting enough shots, but not going overboard, and still getting good/perfect panoramas. the hardest part right now is making sure the camera stays perfectly level, and that the legs of hte tripod don't move at all... if/when that occurs, it makes it more difficult to make the lines match up, and thus makes the panorama look crazy.

hmm... could be.

thanks, i've been trying to improve on my photography... i need to start branching out more, and taking less pics of car... or more pics of other stuff, lol.

auto's ok for now... when i get a job, maybe i'll look into a few things.

*COUGH* elliots car is gonna be a whole lot SeSsieR!

[TEckert]

they're 15s (reminds me i need to change the stats on the 1st page)...

i'm trying to sell my buddy clubs... the volks i probably won't be able to sell them for what i paid for them (the tires are only one month old), so i'm going to repaint them and see what happens. depending on where i move and whether or not i can sell them for what i want, they'll be my winter wheels!

[shawn.hayden]

sweet sweet! cannot wait to see your car in it's new form in person! APRIL IS TOO FAR AWAY!

[k-mart]

pictures do not give that lip any justice!

[br0nx finest]
