Arrow Naomi's first photo shoot

Since I finally got around to clay bar-ing off the paint dots that my apt complex accidentally sprayed on my hood/bumper and re-attaching the passenger side door trim, I figured the young lady deserved a lil photo shoot (before something else happens to her )...

So I went to a local spot and finally got some pics w/ something better than a camera phone, or rather got a friend to get some pics cuz my $$$ goes towards mods not cameras lol.


#1 - makes me want to install my S5 bumber w/ fog lights and find a nice lip...


#2


#3 - an interesting effect we discovered ...


#4


#5 ...to wing, or not to wing...?


#6


#7 ....yes...they are.

Lol, about that....

As you can see, my engine pulls so much vaccume I have negative oil pressure

The center console (not whole interior) is out because I'm in the process of :
a) creating a custom gauge cluster to house oil pressure/ coolant temp gauges
b) relocating the idoit lights below were the radio will go
c) mounting a gauge pod where the idiot lights were to house A/F and future gauges
d) mounting an adjustable fuel level gauge in a single A-pillar pod

Thanks for the comments guys.

As far as the wing goes, I've got a base/lip spoiler that I'm contemplating putting on when I eventually get it repainted (or getting it color matched and installed). I've seen it on red and white cars, and it looked badass painted, but I haven't seen it on any black cars...

They are as real as decals can be. The sides are "GT-R" decals and the rear is just the savanna RX-7 decal that all jdm FC's had......not sure if the Infini even had that badge actualy.

I'm tryin to figure out what to put on the right side where the "Mazda" emblem originally was. Maybe a Mazda decal? Amemiya?

Looks really nice, and somebody discovered light painting :P

I would definitely say wing on, GTU wing FTW.

The s4 bumper and everything doesn't look bad at all, maybe just drop it a little bit more...

Don't know, I'm not the photographer, but I would imagine its because the hatch lets in a lot of light, and I was parked directly under a light, and because he used a rather long exposure...?

Yea.....so can thousands of other people people every day I did it because I think it looks cleaner, since I don't have any kind of cool custom plate. Thanks for the comments!

Ahh, so THAT's what its called, good to know

wow, one FOR a wing lol. I'm leaning toward the sport wing if any for now. Maybe an amemiya wing somewher down the road if I ever get a bumper and side skirts.

Yea, when the trim is painted, the S4 bumbers don't look too bad. Only thing is there are no decent lips for S4 bumbers, and fog lights don't fit. Plus I already have an S5 bumper w/ lights in storage w/ all the trim.

As far as the drop, I have ground control to thank for that

The rears can be slammed (except the camber will be become ridiculous). But the fronts wont go any lower than they are right now which doesn't seem right. And I can't have the rear lower than the front so....

So if anyone has any experience w/ ground controls and getting the front down PLEASE let me know.

Yeah, I've dabbled in light painting my self:


Yeah thats the reason why I wanna do an S5 conversion, but a TII is coming first

Also, what steering wheel is that? I can see it's a personal but which model?

Wow, that's tight, much better than ours lol

Just make the TII and the S5 converstion one in the same

I got it from some importer through ebay so I have no idea what model. Honestly every Personal wheel I've ever seen looks the exact same except the stitching is different colors lol.

Thanks.

The S5 conversion will come slowly, just as I get the money for the different part. Tail lights are a must.

And yeah lol, I was just curious cause it looked a little different. Do you know what size it is?
