Thanks bro! Yeah, the rear is a hit or miss with some folks. I like the simplicitiy of it but I have thought of changing it up as well since it does cover up your exhaust which is either a good or bad thing. Good for keeping it out of site from the popos & bad since you can't showoff the nice polished look of your exhaust.

plus looking at the back of the car's plates stand point it makes the Z look heavier. If you were gonna change it what would you put on? I need suggestions haha

Thanks bro! I probably wouldn't mind either since I'm always up for practicing

Speaking of which...here's more practice shots in front of my house. As you can see, I'm also playing around with a few different angles. This area is pretty dark so the images might not be so great. I really should go to a more lit area but it was late & was lazy to drive somewhere. One of the next door neighbor's sensor light came on which is why the 2nd pic looks a tad bit brighter.

Thanks! Hahaha...I'm actually a camera happy **** becuase I bought me a new camera & I'm trying to learn how to properly use the damn thing. LOL. I'm hoping I can get good enough so I can eventually do some side jobs similar to what cyber350z is doing & maybe some events. It's pretty addicting once you get into it. Especially when you're messing around to see what certain functions/setups will do.

It's the lighting/angle . After looking at some pics I took before I thought of that too but when I actually looked at the car up close it looked fine.

Thanks guys! Yeah, I'm always using the the Manual mode now so I can fully play around with the settings. I think I'm starting to get the hang of it but I definitely need a new lens. The 18-55mm kit lens is a pretty good general purpose lens & you can definitely learn from it but I find it a hit or miss when taking pics. That's why I take a whole bunch of shots & hope most of them turn out okay.

I've found that doesn't really change much, haha. Well, for me at least.

Haven't updated this in a while but I have changed a few things since. Here's a couple of teaser shots of what is coming up

Mercury Silver 19x9.5 +17 & 19x10.5 +18


SF-Challenge Center Caps (Didn't push the caps all the way in yet which is why it looks like it's popping out)


Toyo T1-R 255/35 & 275/35


Now I just need to get my car back from the bodyshop so I can put these bad boys on & take another photoshoot .

Again...I'd like to give my special thanks to Brian at Mackin, Rick from Status, & Andy from Performance for helping me out

Can't wait

I thought those are the offsets that Nitrouz has, and it didn't fit over your brakes properly? What happened?
