+1 on the neck, I think mine snapped lol... the angle is a bit extreme, but I like DOF. More on the Z

Thanks guys, anyways the way I shot this was on the ground. So basically the concept was, I wasn't going for a standard position shot which means standing up or anything like that. I didn't want it to be viewed like how you see the car eye level wise. It gives the viewer a radical angle for a car. You don't have to necessarily view it bending your neck. JDM angle was never linked in my mind when I do shots. There isn't such thing.

i agree, too much "ricer tilt" a little bit is ok if it adds to the drama of the picture. otherwise it's not needed. the cars look good but the background in #1 needs to go imo. way too much going on there and it does not add to the car or the picture

I used Photoshop CS4. Nothing too crazy on the effect, just toned the color, good balance shade. I'm running Work S1 3 piece (black/polished). It has a custom matte black (temporary paint) on the lip.

Thanks guys!

STI needs a canister style muffler with a big *** tip in order to look right.
