I just finished washing and waxing my new FC, and took it to the park for some quick pictures. The repairs I did on the rear of the driver's side have held up well for this last week, and look pretty good in the pictures. The front quarter panels are getting replaced as soon as I can find some suitable ones, and the passenger side will get the fiberglass treatment when I feel like making that horrendous mess again.

I think you need to zoom in more when you take pics with your telescope.

Glad you guys like the pics. I've got a Canon A80, and it does take awesome pictures. I do need to work on the zoom thing though, I never use it. I usually just walk closer or farther away in cases like this, but it would probably help with focusing. The only thing I want to bolt on is the sport spoiler (the one that extends off the back, not the TII variety). I think it would look pretty classy.

I'll bring the car out to a couple of other places after work tomarrow to take more cool pictures.

I'll use better compression next time as well. I scrunched these down quite a bit and the colors aren't that hot.

Oh no, what happened to your fender, why is there a chunk missing?

Paint looks good after that wax!

That's called rust. It happens to us poor bastards who live away from the sun year round.
