Need a "WOW" picture: 3rd Gen

Hey guys..

I need a picture that is "wowing" of a third gen. It can be a 99 spec, or anything.

It will be used as my background for my LCD CarPuter inside the car. Maybe nice driving picture of a Red 99 Spec? Or some abstract picture of going down the seem of the car with a nice background?

Something cool. Anything would help. For some odd reason when I am looking for something neat, I cant find it.

I like this picture:

Any help would be appreciated.

these are good background photos




also you can obviously crop out the import south logo and top part of the top picture pretty easily

Well it's obviously an American-spec car that's been converted to the newere bumper. I believe in '95 there was a glass sunroof available.

wow.......all those pictures look amazing......I thought no pictures did the fd justice, somehow I never seem to be able to catch the magic of my FD when I take pictures of it, its so much more breathtaking in person, but these pictures are pretty capturing.

I think it is fake, like a magazine picture or something you would find in the dealers broshure. Batman has different foglights and black wheels. Also he has removed the orange piece from his front lights and running clear front turn signals. He has black interior, not tan. Oh and he has a 99 front lip where the one in this pic has the stock R1 lip. Definitely not his car, his car looks better, lol.

I know his car is real and looks incredible but I am talking about that one picture in question. That is absolutely not the same car.

Thats is easily one of the best stock looking Fd's I have ever seen.

I assure u that it is indeed my car a couple months after I got it from the dealership.

I just washed the car.

If u can zoom in (granted the resolution is good enough) u should see that the passenger window is still a little wet, a mistake no professional guy would NOT miss.

Also, there is a reflection of the powerline in the glass as well.

I lowered it and installed the fog lights.

The pic was taken with a Nikon N90s with Kodak Ektar 25.

My interior is tan. I redid the seats black.

Is it me or does the 99 front end look like it's "smiling" compared to the more serious look of the earlier FD?
