Well, to be honest...I'm waiting for it to arrive! Those pictures are texts Cory sent me. 
He was going to ship yesterday but he had a long day at work, told him to get it out when he could, within reason.

Thanks Sticker Tyler...first time in here?!?! Glad to have you!
Anil, yeah, he ended up posting in the black market looking for $1300...I asked him if he was your friend and he said yes. He ended up dropping it to $1200 shipped and then we took it to PM.

LOL...thanks Sean...
You gave me the inspiration...I guess I could mess with it a little bit to make them look slightly more surreal, but I am so happy with the whole new world of photography that lens has opened up for me.

Good stuff. I do the same. I hate touching up photos, I think it takes away from the photographers skill. I want to see how well someone takes pictures, not how well you can edit them. Granted, lots of edited shots are very cool, but that just means you have the skills needed for photoshop.

^^^right, but to be honest...I feel like the lens is doing all the work. Like, I'll SEE the beauty and capture what I see...but a lot of times that doesn't happen, I look after the fact and it's like MEH...wtf is that. So you play with it to make it look nice.
But I agree...not editing feels much more "pure" in the sense...I'm constantly surprised by how you can take a shot, see it on the computer and be like...WOW...that's gorgeous!

SO you did get that exhaust! I was wondering if it was you that pulled the trigger
nice pickup! can't wait to see it installed. I was tempted myself but I have the Type-S A-Spec and the quads would probably look too small...
Can't wait to see more beautiful pics.
BTW> After getting my works installed and my Teins, I'm hoping to have similar fitment to you

Yes sir, that was me...bought it from Redbirds, he's a really nice guy...should have it by next week at some point, I figure. No rush, but you KNOW I'll hit you guys up with some new pictures when the time comes!
Well, you KNOW I'm a fitment cheater with the use of spacers, right?! I'm sure you'll put my car to shame, but thanks for the compliment none the less.

Jeremy, love the new shots of the long-pipe. I've updated your thread date.
I just ordered a Canon OES Rebel T4i....can't wait for it to arrive. It better get here before I leave for my honeymoon on July 22nd.
And, by the way, you're WAY over thinking the roof spoiler. Get a JDM spoiler for $78, get it painted and double side tape it on!

Why you...
My car was BORN with the Aspec on, sir! It was an original one!
Hmmm...yes, exhaust, jpipe, high flow cats, switchbacks, visors, CAI...the drop is a stretch, but I DID say I was done lowering cars when I get the TL...so it counts, wheels, sound system.
Fk, I am full of shit.

Performance? Who needs performance? Then came Jpipe, UR pulley, progress RSB, PCDs...
Drop? "there's too many speed bumps in my area" then came H&R Sport springs, and now the Tein Advance coilovers
Rims? The aspecs are enough for me! Then came the BBS reps and the WORKs
PFFFT LEDs? Now I have them just about anywhere you can put them lol.
And the list goes on...Damn you Acurazine!
