Last time I was with my car I washed and waxed her and went on a brief photoshoot. Here are some of the pictures from that day. Enjoy!

Haha, I actually have red/green colorblindness (FTLomgLOL) which doesn't help much in any artistic process. I see most colors a tad differently than everyone else. While editing these, they didn't look too weird to me, but after seeing them all laid out one after the other allows me to see the other colors that my eyes get used to and stop seeing after I spend a lot of time with one. It just makes them more...abstract?? ;)

Nice, you have a good eye for composition and creative use of lighting. If you get a reaction, good or bad from people looking at your photographs, you've done something right. Push the boundries of the accepted normalcy that people impose on their own eyes, what people "get" out of your art is largely based on what they bring to it, keep up the good work.

I've got the caps, but I need new stickers. Are our centers 58, 64.5, or 70mm?

You need to measure before ordering, the many differant rim styles all had one of several sizes.

the old dude I bought my business from was red/green blind, Once I mixed some green ink to about the shade of gray the orange ink was supposed to be and he told me to add 1/2 gram of black...go figure. I mixed up the correct orange and printed the job...LOL Memories....sigh

sorry dude the missing words are green, orange and grey...almost forgot about you.

Well, yeah, that's why I'm asking if anyone happens to know. I currently reside 75 miles away from where my automobile is parked and I don't have a 76 mile measuring tape with hidden microcam on me at the moment :) I want to order some stickers off eBay and have them arrive at home within a week or so. Bimmerfest is drawing near, and I don't have much time to spare. So if anyone knows the millimeterage of the centercap stickers for the basketweave wheels I could use your help!

Ha! That sounds like someone with a severe case. For me, I can see all colors no problem as long as they are bright and pronounced. I can't really distiguish some shades of yellow from light green, or blue from dark purples. For instance, I'm not sure if the ocean in my sig is blue or purple. I did some minor editing to it, and may have gotten it all wrong. You'll notice that in the last picture that the car has a greenish tint (I think :( ), that I thought was grayish-blue until I saw that picture next to all the other ones. Comparing colors side by side is what allows me to really tell what they are.

Most of the rims take 70mm, but just make sure the listed rim is the one your running.

I like the pics. I love looking at pics taken artistically and edited with photoshop. Unfortunetly i am terrible at both.

Sounds good. The ones I'm looking to order should come in 2-3 days shipped from LA.
