Thanks for looking!
 
Great job Jason. I always enjoy looking at your details.:dblthumb2: After that one was done it looks like you could walk across the street and get your back put back into shape.
 
Awesome job! The BMW 335xi looks amazing. I like the look of the Carbon Fiber Rear Valence.
 
Absolutely perfect! How do you go about getting those HDR shots?
 
Very nice! :dblthumb2:

Hoping to get similar results this spring!

I was also wondering about those HDR shots?

Thanks Dana... As always I appreciate your compliment..

You aren't kidding about that man, I have often thought of exchanging services with them...

What did you treat the carbon fiber with? Just curious.

Good question... Same as the paint excluding the compound step..

Thanks Bobby... I agree, the CF really set it off.

Thanks TTMan, I had someone take the HDR shots for me:xyxthumbs:

Thanks Moe - good luck in the spring... *see above*
 
Very nice work, that's a beautiful machine.

High dynamic range shots? Someone put some effort into the pics :xyxthumbs: Do you know how many exposures were used to create the shots? I've been dabbling in photography recently and HDR has piqued my interest.
