TL + Train Car = PHotosHOOT

A few shots after a wash. Weather said it would be just cloudy, but of course it had to sprinkle for about half an hour. Enjoy...

It does look good...clean and simple. I'm still surprised how good the OEM 17s look with the kit and a drop.

Yeah. It's just the OEM bracket flipped upside down and tied to the vertical grilles behind with zip ties on both sides to even it out. gHETTO, but it works. It pretty much looks as if it were mounted with screws. It does rub a lot on the bottom against the front lip, so I put some foam tabs down there to protect it.

Could you slowly and carefully heat the plastic bracket and bend it a bit out/away from the car so it no longer rubs against the lip of the bumper? Just a thought.

Not sure I want to go through that much trouble, but thanks for the idea. I think it's just the basic physics of it that has it rubbing. It's like hanging a picture frame on a wall. The top is hung and the bottom rests against the wall.

Too bad LA doesn't rock as nice graffiti art on our train cars like NYC. All of our ghetto "graffiti art" is in the wash/freeways. =(

You could photograph your car in front of garbage dump and it would still look hot!

Transformers theme was just a phase. Maybe I'll go back to it when the sequel to the movie arrives. I know it's already in the works!
