First timer

So after turning in some job applications i saw a small parking garage and i just decided to go and do a quick shoot with the digital camera i had in my car. This was my first time just taking pics of my car so dont hate on how bad they are if they are. Haha just give tips instead? Also feel free to photoshop it to make it look better, i dont have photoshop. And i know i have the 4x4 stance haha.

you can always do the cheap mods that dont cost anything, like intake resonator removal and blacking out the headlights which costs like 15 bucks. the spoiler looks nice

It looks good but its not, on the trunk it looks like there was soap scum or some other liquid that dried up and left its mark behind. I got two deep scratches above the right wheel well, and a couple scratches on the passenger door, then the back right bumper is totally messed up, when my mom backed up into a stone trash can. And the hood is not soo great. But otherwise the paint is good esp for a nine year old car, i would say its pretty good.

The car looks great man, but damn that chop of it looks even better

Good luck getting a job. I quit my previous job in April and I'm still trying to find one right now so I can pour all of my income into my car. It's addicting to say the least.

so i just realized when i shined my lights on my garage that there is a big difference between the light output of my right and left headlight. I think my left one, like the picture shown is getting old or something is causing it to look like that. My right one is much whiter
