One very nice photo.

Welp, just discovered that the second professional photoshoot of my car will not be used, ONCE AGAIN! I'm very patient and know how to wait for things, but this one is simply killing me and i'm raging inside. So posting this photo which i havent released for 4 months now won't be an issue.

Here is his work. Devin Lefevere is the name of the photographer.

Awesome picture, but too bad about the spread. You should try to see if he'll send you the rest of the pics.

VERY nice pic.

Sorry you didn't get 'em in print.

BUT NOW you've got those brake (Project Mu) and getting your bumper re-done, how could thay say "no" the 3rd time.

You'll get it in the mag man, just keep plugging away.

Sorry to hear that Eric, but that is a sweet pic with the beautiful Queen city in the backround. Very nice. After all the other mods you do, give them a call and see if they might get you into the mag again. It never hurts to ask. I really can't see why they didn't use your car. What was there answer for not printing it?

I personally think it's my favorite shot of the thousands of pics that i've got. Unfortunately, him and the editor see flaws in the pictures that we as ordinary people could care less about.

It's an awesome photo, or it's actually a composite made with photoshop CS3.

I have to remember that patience is virtue. But at the same time i feel like getting this car in an issue of Import Tuner is an unattainable goal.

I could tell you what the first flaw is... u need 18x9 in the same wheel with the same offset in a 245/40 or possibly a 255/40 tire... cuz you don't look jdm to me from the fender down lmfao... j/k

no honestly when you finally get the spread... it will be worthy for all of us to run and get the article...

ps... can you even see with the cf f1 mirrors? and better yet... is that how u curb wheels?

Allright guys, i've made my decision about the feature.

Basically, the first attempt was for Honda Tuning in Sept. 2006.

The second attempt was in January 2008.

And now, In mid April I decide to find out the status of the feature, and find that the second photoshoot results will not be used.

So to end this story, I have decided to decline the third attempt at getting this car in the magazine, all due to the fact that I personally had to make the effort to find out the status. I would be ok if Primedia or the photographer contacted me and let me know it was a failure. It's ridiculous.
