Looking good man! I need to get out and do more photos.
I just curbed another wheel this morning lol. I guess the good and the bad is it is always the same two f'ing wheels. Thinking about getting some curb feelers. I think as many times as I have sanded down the lips and fixed a curb mark I'm gonna end up with no lip haha.

Kewl! It's a lot more than just having a "Good Camera" but it can all be learned ... Hours of Youtube in your future... Start reading up on Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO... Photography is all about light... Get the camera into the A or S mode and out of Auto... then into M or Full Manual... will be your first things to learn... Also look up the rule of thirds, then off camera lighting... oh yeah and Editing... Lightroom 5 will be something you'll want... and expect anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours editing each pic...

For shooting the baby you need to look into a 50mm 1.8G AF-S lens... it's like 200 bucks at B&H Photo... (Best prices on gear) it'll drop to a wide enough aperture so you can bokeh the background and shoot in low light... it's what I always go to for shooting babys

car's lookin' MINTY FRESH man!
Good pick up! I thought about buying a roller too, but the TL is most likely the only vehicle I'm going to roll the fenders on, my CB7 accord and 03 Altima are still down n' out and never rubbed anyway.
I think the wife's gonna have to bust our her Canon for our next shots...seems like it's the norm for "professional" shots now

^^^ $75 per corner?! What a ripoff!
I can get it professionally done $40 per corner and that's the going rate.

Yeah pricey here that's why I just broke off and bought the tool... Did them today... Came out perfect... I will say the ambient temp would make it a lot easier if it's hot... The first one it was in the high 70's and no issues keeping it warm... the other side the temp had dropped and it kept cooling off real fast... Other than that just having to heat it up a lot more no issues... Made a ton of clearance... Guess I'll have to do Matt's for him here soon...

So a few days ago I cleaned out my garage and the stock side skirts for the TL were taking up a ton of space so I threw them outside with the intention of putting them at the curb on trash day... trash day came and I said why don't I give them one chance to sell... so I ran an ad on CL and put them on eBay... and whatcha know I get up today with a guy calling me from a shop in SC wanting them... he paypal'd me $200 bucks... looks like 35 or so to ship... Gotta love a free $150 bucks at Christmas time for something you were throwing away...

Wrapping Christmas Presents in the middle of the night just figured out there's atleast 7 new Mod's for the TL under the tree... It's been about a year since I started this build thread about time to finish up round one of the Mods... This stuff should pretty much finish up what all we wanted to do to her car. Once it's completed then it's time to start thinking about if any changes need to be made right? Once all the original wanted mods are done it'll be time to sit back reflect and see if we did it right or something could use improvement... Yes there is another box over 5 foot tall under the tree for it this year any guesses?

Okay so Santa Brought some toys, 4 inch Quad Tips, Nexson Painted a Rear Trim Piece to Match, Headlights from a 2012, HIDs top and bottom 6000k, Switchbacks, Tint for the tails, reflectors, and parking lights, A Small Mod I'm keeping on the low till it's installed, New Lug Nuts, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple of things... looks like I got some work ahead of me... Then later on Christmas night some young chick decides she wants to take my truck almost head on with her Volvo and kill my front suspension and bumper... So not only all the car projects on the TL and the Hot Rod from Xmas presents I get to deal with insurance companys about getting my truck fixed...
