Pics and video from a not so recent cruise.....(not 56K friendly)

We started at Super AutoBacs/Super Auto Toyz in Tustin and ended up at the Korean Friendship Bell in San Pedro, Ca.

A billion 2G TL's showed up, 3 3G's and I was the only CL. (BIGBOOMER77 couldn't come that day.)

I wasn't in the video much since two of us got sidetracked on the way to San Pedro.

Makes me lonely actually. Wish there were more CL's. I hardly see them on the road around here, let alone meets. Usually just Bigboomer and I.

The bridge has been the best spot I've been to for a photoshoot. We're planning to do another one as soon as my new camera equipment and wheels comes in. You should join us.

These are the only ones I have, when the light was more recessed in the insert. Light output is higher now the way I've got them mounted.

Excuse the shitty pics, these weren't taken with my DSLR.

Very nice pictures. I have a question for you. Where were the pictures taken. I guess it's around Long Beach maybe or San Pedro.

Thanks Man! All I can say is practice and more practice. Keep taking shots of anything not just your car. Experiment with the different settings on your camera, long exposures etc. Practice taking night time photos. I picked up my DSLR in July and have slowly progressed in taking nicer pics.

The first time shooting photos are here:

Thanks! Pics were taken under the Vincent Thomas Bridge. The closest intersection that I remember was one with fountains. One of the guys marked the spot on his GPS. We're planning to go back for another shoot in 3 weeks, you should join us! Would be nice to have another CL!

Fogs were easy, took me less than 30 minute to install them. I'm waiting for my HID kit before I take anymore pics.

Gio! Thanks!

If you need front end parts, I know somebody who has them, I worked on his headlights 2 weeks ago.
