Default IIP tC - photoshoot 4/10

I did some spring detailing on Sunday with the help of my brother. I used clay bar to remove all abrasives and particles from within the paint after a nice wash with Meguiar's Gold Class soap. Then I polished with Meguiar's Deep Crystal Polish and waxed with Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax.

After 5 hours of hard work I figured it deserved some photos. Here's one and then click on the photo album link for more.

Crop out that subie in 10 and 11 and give your car the center angle and you could have a really nice picture there...Lovely car.

tip for taking photos.

take them when there's a ridiculous amount of sun out.
the extra light will bring out the colors in your car.

Ok, so its not some PROFESSIONAL photoshoot, but its a better thread than the "pics of my car" crap where its in mom and dad's driveway.

The WRX is my brother's ... thought it would be cool to take some together.

If there was sunlight I'd use it ... but I didn't get done detailing until the sun was beginning to set.

And that spoiler is the OEM lip spoiler.

Dang, 322 views and nobody else wants to comment today. I know they're not the BEST pics ever, but I thought I found a couple of cool locations.

No major exterior mods or anything yet, but the IIP is still damn cool.

Nice pics! I love how IIP looks completely different in the sun than it does in the shade.
