How is the paint up close? I'm trying to get ideas on where I'm taking my car since painting it in my garage is looking impossible now between buying the tools and materials and what not. I'm capable, just the other factors are stacking up .
Great color choice BTW.
h and wahts the offsets on those wheels?

The paint up close is ok. it's not all mirror finish or anything.

The wheel offsets are +34 with a 5mm spacer front and a +35 rear

I despise the Nikon D40(x) but I can't argue that you know how to use it. Good pics. I LOVE your 7, great improvement to just hackout the grill of the S4 bumper(pm a pic of the area where the cuts were made so I can see how "salvagable the areas are"?), I may not need an S5 bumper if I can get mine to look that good when I save up for a re-spray.

Car looks great! Love the thick 5-spoke style wheel! Same style I have. Damn my car needs a paint job though.

Loved the first set of pics, the 2nd set of pictures, not so great. Use a tripod with low ISO, a smaller aperture (larger number) and at night you probably want to use manual focus.

Not too bad though.

Yeah, the image noise isn't unbearable and it's better than what most P&S users would post, but once you set the bar high for yourself, it's hard to impress unless you meet it again. You are by no means bad and these pics are still good ones.
