** My Masterpiece COMPLETED: Professional Photo Shoot – “Classy, yet Aggressive” **

Hey guys,
These pictures are the culmination of a year and a half of constant modding back and forth between different styles (fully blacked out to very aggressive to very clean, etc). I finally decided on a very clean look with some very aggressive features and I think it came out beautifully. I’ve had the car 18 months now and it has roughly 3,900 miles on it. This photo shoot is the first of two photo shoots (the next one will be in September once I get back from vacation). This shoot was pretty much a night shoot and the next shall be the day shoot counterpart. I hope you like the pictures!

Before the pictures, I would like to thank everyone on the forums for your opinions and help getting all the mods I need, and I would like to thank Derrick@e92-lighting, Sal@AUTOcouturemotoring, Mike@F1Autohaus, and Longtran for all the help getting parts for me even though I always would nag them about my orders all the time. I would like to especially thank Arthur (Point N Shoot) for taking such great pictures of my car, and I definitely recommend him to anyone that needs a shoot.

On to the pictures (if anyone wants WALLPAPER size pictures, PM me):
