Messing Around: Integra Night Shots

[josh99ta]

Didn't have any decent night shots of it, and I was waiting on the little lady, so I pulled the camera out for a few quick shots.

Then again waiting on her so I did some quick editing (mainly just tried a new sharpening method using the Smart Sharpen filter and I think it may have overdid it, thoughts?).

Car was dirty and not much time or thought was put into setting up the photos, so they're not the best, but figured I'd post them anyway.

I like them!...but I have never been a fan of taking pics of a car with lights on. I love how simple and clean that car is. :up:

[josh99ta]

Thanks guys (and girl). :)

Jared, lets make it happen man! Let me know if you'll ever be in the area on the weekends (no time with work and school during the week). I'm free this weekend if you want to make it happen. I'll give you the MTFBA discount even. :)

jdc, I never do the lights on thing either, I was waiting on the chick so I just pulled behind the building real quick, jumped out and snapped a few shots, and I was back in. Didn't even cut the car off so the lights stayed on. I'd definitely like some HIDs, but I'd need to retrofit some quality projectors and in the end it'll end up costing a pretty penny I believe. It'll happen someday, but not anytime soon.

Sleeper, thanks man. Great lengths were taken to really clean the car up. Everything except for the "A" badges up front and in the rear were shaved, even the recessed "INTEGRA" letters in the front and rear bumpers. My buddy did all the body work and insisted on shaving everything. I didn't want him to spend that much time on it for what I was paying but he insisted and did a pretty good job.

I've got an ITR style lip sitting in the floor and can't decide whether I want to get it painted and put it on or not. Right now the car looks so clean and simple. I'm afraid the lip might look tacked on. On the other hand I do like how it extends the lower edge of the front bumper to get rid of the "overbite" look. Not sure.

yeah the hids arent as expensive as they used to be, i have 12000k and gave $150 for them, not bad though

thats a clean teggy. Me and a friend of mine just finished doing a rebuild on his 98 GSR. Its clean but his cousin originally built it right after the F&F movie. haha. He got pulled over for no reason sat night in MT effin Juliet, first time the car has seen the road in 3 years. I told him it was because the ricer look. Its not too bad though. WW lip kit, CF hood, RH 17s, and its white with a blue graphic..Its done right, but eh. I like yours better

[josh99ta]

Thanks man. My ITR lip is painted up and ready to go on. I just have to find the time to go pick it up and put it on there. Should round out the look.
