Thanks for sharing.

P.S: Do you normally drive around with banana peel on the driver's seat?

Jason, is that a detailer on the side of the Emy? Or the new owner?

Stealth, that's his car and that's not my old M5. My old M5 is in CA.

Nice pics Jason as always. Did you tweak the interior shot at all? That seems to be a very good replication of natural grey, something I have had trouble with. What camera are you using.

Thanks
Tony

Tony,

Natural grey is a hard color to represent well but I think I did a pretty good job of getting it tack on. They key is not to use a flash because the colors end up being a bit too harsh that way. I used my Nikon D2X camera for these shots. I'll try taking some with my other camera (Sony digicam) to see if I can get it but I probably will end up having to use Photoshop to tweak it a bit.

Thanks Jason. I had the same trouble either too blue or grey with the flash. Look forward to me stunning shots.

Your TT looks fantastic! I may have to change my order from AS to CB. I love those GT3 wheels. I was thinking about doing the same thing.

Here's another picture taken earlier tonight.


Keep trying stealth! You'll eventually get it right.

We got some SNOW earlier tonight. I couldn't resist taking some pictures of my Turbo in the snow except that I didn't dare to venture very far with these PS2 tires.
