Yea man without a doubt! I loved my 01 ABP CL-S. It was getting high on the milage and I really wanted a 4 door. Since I've moved on from the CL, I miss it. I don't see as many CL's as I do TL's (especially ABP). Don't get me wrong, I love my TL to death, but if I could go back and do it all over again, I would still be in the CL

Keep up the good work on the CL man. I love everything done to it so far. Any other plans?

I feel you on that. Well actually, I need to get a job

I quit my job back in April and I'm missing the money. Good luck getting the car all decked out

As for your pictures, I'm glad you took it as CC. HDR is super fun to play around with to get some crazy looking pictures but you'll soon realize that overdoing tone-mapping actually doesn't look that great. It works on some pics, not on others.

I'm really debating just getting rid of the RJ rear and doing a type-s rear a-spec and getting quads, lol. I'm definitely working on less tone-mapping. When I'm staring at the pictures for long periods of time, i start to pay less attention to detail and not realize that i'm really messing the pictures up.

Not feeling the stock CL at all though. If not for the wheels, it's meh. Shoot even with them, it's meh.

And I agree with jmkiang, the HDR proocessing needs to be toned down a bit. It makes your pics look blurry and noisy.
Thanks for your kind words! I know the front needs to go lower, but I've been lazy. The coilovers aren't as easy to adjust like other brands. I have to actually take out the whole coilover and spring compress them to adjust. Which means I have to go for an alignment again. As for the CL he's a good buddy of mine, and I respect his ride the way it is.

Thanks man! Maybe I'll make a trip out to the east coast (I'm originally from Massachusetts) to see the azine family over there sometime!

Now I just need to decide which one is background worthy.
Haha, thanks man!
