My first time posting pics on here... I've had the 30D for a few weeks now so time to stop lurking and start posting! So here's some shots of my VR6 that I managed to get in that short time you get between finishing cleaning the car and the rain starting! (sorry if there's loads... I couldn't decide which to leave out :oops:)

C&C welcome please (especially on how to improve the reflections)

Also I like the high contrast saturated look but would be interested on others opinions on the pp as well please

not a fan of the WCC valve stem caps, but other than that that's a gorgeous car you have there....I'm a long-time Dub fanatic and I love a clean MkIII :)

The valve caps are only on for shows as there seems to be a very busy valve cap fairy around here :rolleyes:

[GIFS ARE NOT RENDERED IN QUOTES]

Thanks for the tips... very useful thread (s) so is the best way to avoid unwanted reflections like that to either angle the car differently or just find a better location?

Circular polariser helps a bunch

haha...a couple of years ago when I moved to a new town the valve cap fairy stole some basic chrome valvecaps I had for my lowrider (worth about 2 bucks) within the first week lol...it was an awesome first impression for the city ;)

That's it. Sometimes just moving it near the same location works.
It seems like, when you gain something in one area with a CP, you lose something in another area.
