    well, you can easily change your white balance in photoshop. not the best example but it rids out the shit orange light.

    I like the wheel color but not the off color roof.
    I don't like how the rear wheel looks to be shoved forward in the wheel well.

    Overall, it's a nice looking car. Later, QD.
    I believe we've had this conversation a few times. and I'll answer the rear wheel sucking forward in a moment.

    That alone would be enough for me not to do it. lol
    The rear beam is on a pivot point facing the front of the car, naturally if you follow the outside of the circle on the bushing (roughly 2-3") and extend that point out a foot-two feet, you get an exaggerated swing upward and in, hence the tuck forward. they do make brackets (mason tech great plates) which don't work with bags unless you modify them, and a new company JUST released a bracket that changes the mounting point of the rear hub.


    example.

    Ahhh. Well you can see our styles haven't changed much, huh. Lolol. Like I said, though, I do like your car. It's just the couple of little "personal nuisances" is all.

    Also, I had no idea this was your car. Later, QD.

    It always easier to shoot right before sunset or find a parking lot with the right lighting. You're "fixed" example still doesn't have correct tones and WB.

    Im aware. Hence why the screenshot is while it's in photoshop. Not the final product. Just a comparison shot I had screen shotted at the time.
