Sunday Boredom

[oliver.james]

Oh hai. Nothing helps beat Sunday boredom like photo *****ing

Wanted to give the car a clean over the weekend, but never got around to it; luckily being silver it hides any dirt very well :approve:

Got coilovers and shiney new turinis ready and waiting to go on, so fingers crossed the next time there's photos of it these will be on

Comments welcome, etc

Very nice, can't wait to see it in coils.

 

[st3ve]

Very nice pics.

Needs the 182 xenon headlamps, ill never know why they didnt put them on the Cups/Trophy's

Shiny new turinis?

Coincidentally, I've actually been thinking about xenon's the past few days!

Yeah, the ones on the car at the moment aren't in the best condition, but have these sat here waiting to go on

I'll get the old ones refurbed once these are fitted too

Looks great mate, nothing better then having brand new turinis all boxed up

 

[Poopensharten]

Why not just get the current ones refurbed surley that would have been cheaper? :S

 

[pritchard182]

looks sweet like the new turinis

I wanted a second set of wheels regardless, so may as well do it this way

Once the old ones have been refurbed (most likely in anthracite), I'll probably use them in the winter and the new ones throughout the summer

New ones seem to last longer then re-furbs too IMO.

I hope they last well; the current ones are looking :dead: in places tbh!

Having said that, they are 7 years old now, so it's to be expected over that time I guess


Cheers for all the comments from everyone too

Shouldn't be long before they're on; just hard to find the time at the moment with things getting busier at work

Need to get some new engine mounts soon too

[Davis]

looks good as always! im so glad i got xenons for my 182 cup males all the difference!

[g.simmons]

Thats sweet, tidy example of a cup.

 

[danjf]

looks dead nice that mate, and the smaller plate sets it off nicely

 

[Christopher]

That looks amazing!

 

[jim cook]

Very nice mate

 

[oliver.james]

Thanks for the kind comments people

I think the 3/4 plates tidy the front up nicely

what camera are you using? and you done much editing to them? look very good!

Shot on an Olympus E510, imported in .raw format. They've just been sharpened, no other editing

I could do with finding a better location tbh, really need to have a look for somewhere different the next time I feel like photo *****ing.

 

[oliver.james]

One more photo, that I somehow missed when posting yesterday

Think I may order some silvervisions, as I'm not sure the oily effect indicators suit the car tbh...

 

[Tigger]

Lovely shots mate, looks really clean

 

[Gally]

looking good oli, were the pics taking up south wigston industrial estate?

Sure were; there's some half decent backdrops for photos there tbh. I coudln't get where I wanted to use though, as there were cars parked in the way But, one from a few months back...

Might give the car a clean this morning and pop out for a few photos later now it's sitting at a nice height

 

[BREMBO]

Thats mint mate, very nice
