Lightbulb New WDP TL-S and Eclipse Photoshoot

Mods: I posted in the main forum in hopes of letting more people see the pics and it would be great if you guys can move it into the Photograph subsection in a few days... thanks.

Hey guys, last evening/night I went out for a photoshoot at my college in the new parking structure with my buddy's WDP TL-S and captured some pretty nice shots... thought I would share! We did a complete 4-hour wash/clay/wax job just that morning and his car was smoooooth and shining as hell. Our friend who drives a Eclipse came a little later and joined us, but too bad he missed the beautiful sunset. But nothing worse than the fact that I forgot my tripod... so the focus isn't all that great in a lot of them.

Btw if anyone would like higher-resolution versions of these shots, please tell me I'll be glad to upload them!

Enjoy...

Thumbs down

Wow before I make any specific replies to you guys who have commented... got to say I am surprised at how many people dislike the Eclipse. Granted, it's not in the same class as the TL in terms of luxury and grandess, it's still a good car in its niche. Plus he is a friend of mine, and even though you might think I am a little biased, I personally think his car is a nice looking ride. Anyway, I cannot make you guys say what I want you to say, but I just think it would be better if you'all can show some respect instead of dissing his car like that.

Your ride is nice and clean. It's not overly done and I'm feeling the polished look for the rim choice. two thumbs up for the tl.

Nice Cars. And Eclipse GSX/Talon TSi are sick cars when you mod them. A buddy of mine has a Talon TSi, 600+ HP = high 10s ~ low 11's

Anything done to the DSM?

One of my friends is working on a project 1st gen. DSM, and another friend with a 2nd gen GSX.

His GSX is beautiful. I like your friend's GSX, too. Very clean on the outside. But I am curious as to if it's modded at all? It would be a shame to have a GSX and not mod it.

Thx I'll relay your sweet comments to him next time i see him.
This is from memory so I am probably missing out on some mods... dropped about 2" on Tanabe springs, the 18" Blitz rims as you can see, exhaust (cat-back i think), intake, and blow-off valve. his next mod is going to be coilovers because his current ride is too bumpy with the stock shocks haha. i hit my head to the roof so many times sitting in the back

You may have forgotten all about 05cillations, but cot damn those are some sick pictures. I really dig that TL... it's the epitome of everything I liked about that generation. The front, I have to say, is the hottest thing about it.

The GSX is a nice lookin car too, and even better performing. As always, incredible shots. Get on AIM and send me the full res (and unedited if possible) first shot. Maybe I'll make a wallpaper or something out of it.
