Miggs -

I think I like the other session of pics better than these. Of this group, I think I prefer the last one, but your car looks better than this.

Regarding Torque's comment, I too just got my Official BMW product "roadster" plate frames for the front and back instead of the piece of crap plastic dealer garbage for a place I no longer wish to advertise. Anyway, they look great, except I too had a problem with one of the 4 holes not holding (stripped) and so there are 3 screws on each plate for now. Plus, planned to glue the 4th silver finishing nut on the empty 4th hole, but now noticed one of the installed silver caps popped off during my first drive with the new plate setup. Rats! So - will try and get a replacement, or maybe go with 2 screws with caps and skip the other 2 or maybe delete the covers on the rear top as they are very hard to see and the front plate is the showcase. Plan to take some sick close-ups when we shoot SLR Hi-res in a few weeks so the roadster framed plate can be part of a new siggy that my friends Torquey or Speedy will make for me...PLEEEEASE....

Anyway, was psyched, now a bit bummed over the pain in the ass. As for your shots, the lower res just gives you an excuse to go and shoot some more! All friends I've showed your sig to say "it looks WET!". Nice job with the wax my friend! Catch you soon.

not really, it looks pretty good as it is right now, and it sits pretty low, so dropping it right now might not be such a good idea, i might lower it when i get some new wheels next month (i hope), but until then, it stays as is

Looks good. I have to say though, that the high res pics probably looked a lot better before you shrunk them down. Lots of little jaggies...

Hey thanks Kyle! You just answered a long standing question of mine. I resized my images (including the higher res ones) with MS Paint and had been trying to figure why some folks' pics are within guidelines and super sharp and others (ie MINE) were pixelated and for shit! I didn't (wasn't able to without ruining them) post the more recent hi res "in the meantime" shots in my garage as they looked so bad. They came out nice in a thread but not the garage. Again - I'm changing most in a few weeks but still wanted the new ones up. Now I know why. Rats.
