Well first time shooting a DSLR (Nikon D40 w/18-55 AF-S lens) and I think the pics came out OK. Some are a little grainy as I had it set to record all pics in normal and RAW so no fine but they're not bad. Some of them are a little dark, but they were shot into the sun and I underexposed the car to capture some of the sunset.
















some HDR shots, my first attempt so feel free to give some advice.

 

You should really try to clone yourself out of the second to last pic, but otherwise, pretty solid pics. You've got a nice car but keep practicing with the camera!

 

Damnit, I was expecting vag in this thread.

 

Pretty good looking car. I am liking the looks of them more and more. The first few i saw just did nothing for me.

 

This is a really nice car in the mid 20 range.
the dsg and the 6 speed is superb. it drives like e36 m3 imho.
awesome pictures as well.

Love the white Time Attack'd LM reps (Raderworks?) along with the matching grille stripe.

 

Nice job, nice car

 

The first HDR shot is money... my hdr shots always turned out like crap... Good work!

 

looks good...thanks for not going with the red time attack stripe..x2 on the radderworks comment..your the first person ive seen pull off those wheels....nice dub

 

Nice... Are all your CF bits from OSIR?... How is the fit and finish?

 

the only real CF piece is the rear diffuser and yes, it's osir. The interior bits are a CF vinyl i used to see if I'd like the CF on the interior but it looks so good that i'm in no hurry to get the real CF pieces now (will get the VW Individual pieces eventually). The fit and finish on the rear diffuser is good, but it takes some work to get it to sit flush. I had to take the bumper off and clamp it while the silicone adhesive dried in the sun for ~6-7 hours.

 

PB: can you tell me more about these VW Individual pieces? Thinking about getting some CF interior pieces for the R32 and would prefer OEM over OSIR if possible. Thanks.

Seen these on GolfMKV forums!
beautiful GTI.

 

my buddy with an 08 GTI just got some new 19's for his ride.

He's happy with them, which IS the important thing, but for me, they looked better in the box.
