Thanks !
The above shot was in a tunnel leading to underground parking (lights had burned out) I climbed up and attached a flashlight to the ducts, then moved the car directly under (numerous times, until I got the affect I wanted)
I Photoshopped out the front license plate, grill & wipers.
(It's very grainy, as I had to crank up the ISO)
Have some more images I need to clean up and post.
(winters are hard)

Rep Power: 41 On the 2nd day of ownership - the 'idiot lights' showed up - I just ignored it! (my previous V8 had the emissions light forever going off, but then again that car was "CURSED" with all sorts of ailments - I dubbed it the Anti-Christ . . . amazed I bought another one
)

(winters are hard)Regardless, would love to have a shot like that of my car with the menacing CF vents. Although I've been saying it for a while, I plan on having some professional shots taken of my car one of these days. Think I'll show your shot to the photographer as an example of what I like.

Appreciate the compliments - truth be told, more luck involved than anything else that I got some cool shots. I did try to leave the grill in at first, but just looked messy, plus our ugly front plates don't help.
If you don't have a photographer in mind, I have a friend who's going to school in Savannah and takes phenomenal shots. (believe he's still there for a another 2/3 weeks)

An older shot, with I hadn't posted on this thread. Enjoy
