Great car, I would recommend upgrading to LED rears.

Looking clean otherwise.

Very clean looking Z! I like what you've done to it!

Regarding photographic skill, your composition/framing could improve a little. Look up "rule of thirds" and practice. It is the first thing I always recommend to anyone starting out in photography. Manual tweaking, exposure bracketing etc. will all come later. Again, keep up the good work and keep posting!

The camera is increasing the f stop because of light reflected from the street and buildings. I assume you are using a auto setting? Go down 1 or 2 stops if possible. Give me more light.

The D40 is still an amazing camera. I have a Rebel XTi and my gf takes better photos in auto setting sometimes, it frustrates me. I still need practice but I wonder if it's the image sensor on the D40.

Very nice car. The funny thing is If I installed the LX kit on my car and got the 06+ headlights your car and mine would be indentical but then again that's a bit more for me to do.

Are you lowered on anything?
