Nice light on them. I'm assuming that they look pink on purpose?

Actually...He is referring to your pictures. Looks like your White Balance is a bit off.

I'm hating you more and more, you always have these beautiful cars to shoot, and the backgrounds can't be beat. (I'll never get sick of the bridge shots) hahahaha

oh..I see what you mean about the tint.. It's from the changing color of the sky as rye sun goes down... I think :)

SO JEALOUS!!! I want that car. WOW! Pretty much one of the most perfect examples of that car. I've always had a thing for the bug eyes!

Love the car. Mine is a 2005. The WB does seem a little off. Easy to fix.

Is that near Mt. Diablo?

Nice shots, love the lighting and background. It's a DVC isn't it. I'm from San Ramon too lol.

I'll be back when you repost the newly edited pics, while you're at it, try to sharpen mask them a little bit... they seem a little... soft for some reason.

Just being a nag... thought I'd put some more cents in the basket :)

Next time, watch for things in the background (or on the floor right next to the car in this case) and pull the car up or back so that you have less distractions. Also, try cloning out the powerlines wayyyy in the background (not a big deal, but I dislike powerlines) 8)

Love the Rota's.....I would love to get some for my Evo, but want to avoid having to fender roll as much as possible so I will most likely get 17" Advan RS wheels.....oh yeah.....good pics! haha!

Ok so I am hoping that I am not the only person to notice this but in picture number 2 in your first post there is a person in the picture.

goregeous! My friend (on i-club, hawaii chapter) has a STM bugeye/STi conversion. The bugeye lights were so unappreciated for their time, but gorgeous.

I was a GC8 guy myself :D

Project Mu brakes and the car still has rotas? Why not just go for some real TEs? Great looking car though.

Are those Volks? Not a fan of the wing or the wheels, but the rest of the car looks great.

The wheels are Rota Grids 18xhellawide. Why go TE when you own a company that sells the Rotas?!

Man I want a set of these for my STi.

boostman... I thought subydude was the owner of the company? subydude has a BMW 335i coupe, doesn't he?

Yeah, that is what I meant Corzy, sorry for not being very clear. Yes he does have the HOT bimmer too.

Not a fan of the wing, or wheel fitment on that car at all lol

#3 is my fav, if it were a tad sharper

screxer
28th of November 2008 (Fri), 11:39
How can someone NOT like the wheel fitment and offset of a nice, wide Rota on a car like an STI? haha! I personally love the offset of Rota's on cars like the Evo and STI....it gives them a much more aggressive look.

There needs to be more rim or tire, or more drop, or less offset, or a combo of everything and more tire or more tire strech.
edit:
Besides, Rotas belong on Hondas and other rice, not Subaru.
