Foggy Houston night + HDR = WIN.

These are low res versions that got a little grainy when I resized them...I need to get the originals from my roommate. You get the idea though.

Nice shots Aggie. Maybe use one of the high res shots for an Avatar.

Three of my girlfriend's friends died yesterday morning because of the fog. They were driving 40 in a 30 and somehow skidded into a pole and the truck exploded. It is really foggy in Houston/Austin right now.

Nice pictures though!

Actually they are the factory ES100's in 235/40/18. I will be going to the 245's very soon...Trying to wear these out first.

Thanks man! I wish you could see it better, but in the rear I've got the type-s lips with nice quads. Nothing better than a '06 front with an '08 rear!

Also, for those 6-speed guys out there...I've struggled to find a suspension setup I like...I've run Tein SS's with EDFC, A-Spec's, and Eibach ProKits. The problem is that I think the 6-speed front end is lighter and makes the nose stick up too high with most springs. I'm acutally running A-Spec spings/shocks in the rear with Eibach springs on A-Spec shocks in the front to drop the nose a little. It sits pretty level now, but I'm considering trying Tein springs in the front for a tad bit more drop. Just FYI.

I've got Kuhmo Ecsta Platinum 245/40/18 on my Gunmetal A-Spec wheels. I highly recommend them

I noticed that when I saw the pictures. That's so sexy! It's on my to-do list

My roommate took them with his D80 and my tripod...I think a lot of the grain in the pictures is due to the trial versons of the software he is using. We're waiting for the mail man to come with full versions of PS and the HDR software for the high res pictures.
