Parker, Much thanks again. It's the little things and sometimes big things that get me. Here's the last shot from the set.

I think now that you have a great idea on composition, you could now dive more into post processing. There are a couple shots that definitely could use some added processing. For this last photo:

I copied the building as a separate layer and did some selective burning while leaving the car and everything else alone.

You got one badass shoebox.

It can definitely turn some heads. I just can't wait for Romraider to hurry up so I can toss on a bigger turbo.

It rides just like a stock '04-'05 STi A little on the bouncy side, but nice in the corners. If you want the same ride height with out the bouncy get some '06-'07 WRX wagon struts and springs, or coilovers. I also have Cobb 25mm Sways fron and rear(adjustable), Pink Trailing arms and aluminum lateral links. I'm very happy with the step up.

The Camera I use is a Nikon D50. I will eventually upgrade, but not for a while. Great camera to learn with.

Thanks for the compliments and please post some pics of your Fozzy.

sounds great....i think i may have to go that route. alot of ppl are really talking about the swift springs. so i have my options.

i def have to do a photo shoot of the fozzy. stinks cause i already broke the vlimited during the last couple snowstorms. went off the rd into a bush.

in time ill get some pics up

^^ the swifts are definitely going to give a nice ride, but only about a 2 inch drop at most. I prefer to sit a bit lower than that.
