They look real good! Gotta break the habit and practice in manual mode! That's what i've been recommended when I get my D40x!

thanks man.. i plan on taking some photography classes here in a few months. The auto mode plus some photoshop'n works for now. i tend to get carried away sometimes with the contrast, but it seems like the norm when it comes to taking pictures of cars.

Is that a refection of a crack that can't be seen in the pic on your red one, or is that a really nasty scratch?
They both look bad ***..i can't believe soleil350z is selling those wheels

output = none.. i'm actually going with some blacked out 06+ lights as soon as i decide i want to part with a left nut as they are pricey to me for that kind of "mod". With the entire light blacked out i lost my high beam as well as some of my low beam. The 03-05 HID's are a combo of projector and reflector.. where as the 06 is pretty much projector only (for high and low).

I do like the look though..

oh, and go to Mr. Zipps.. i re-did these since i had them done by someone and have since had issues with condensation after a good rain.

I am still waiting for my D40x to come in, I ordered it directly from Nikon, with the standard 18-55mm lens, 55-200mm lens and 2 Nikon School DVD's for $739! Can't wait to get it, it's going to take a couple weeks supposedly.

When you learn how to use yours, you will have to tell me how to use mine. I've got a Digital Rebel XTi... NO CLUE how to use it.

Awesome pics Will. The red in them almost looks unreal - much better than in person.
