Small Photoshoot - AM TL & NBP RSX Type-S

I just got a new T2i so I wanted to test it out. Some of the shots are from my friends 5D Mk.I but most of them are shot with the T2i and a 55-250 lens. I also lowered my car a little bit in the rear which was a motivation for a shoot.

My mods are listed in my sig and the Type-S has:
17" Desmond Regamaster
Ohlins Coilovers
Rotora front BBK
Progress RSB and Swaybar Links
FX35 Projector Retrofit with 8000k HID
Spoon N1 exhaust
Hondata Reflash
Fujita F5 CAI

probably more that I don't know of.. His car was also featured in Honda Tuning Magazine this month: http://www.hondatuningmagazine.com/g...gsr/index.html

The TL looks awesome.
Not to downgrade the RSX, but these cars are in totally different classes.
Having the RSX there kinda ruined some of the pix for me.

I would do a solo photoshoot in a real nice enviornment somewhere.

Cheers on the sic TL !

It is canons EF-S 55-250 f/4-5.6 IS. It shoots really good pictures and is relatively inexpensive.

Metadata for the first pic is f/7.1, ISO 400, 1.0s exposure
second pic is f/8.0, ISO 800, 1.0s exposure
the third pic is take with a 5D and it is f/2.8, ISO 1600, 1/30s exposure and its overexposed by +0.67

thanks for the compliment haha, i think the RSX is a lot better in person than in these pics, his car is really clean and tastefully modded but yes they are 2 different types of cars

What did you use to have the plate mounted on the lower left grill like that? I am very interested in a setup like that. Great pics btw!

I bought the mounting bracket from AutoZone for ~$10. requires drilling into the bumper but you drill upwards so if you remove it, it's essentially invisible. Manufacturer is called Bell.

its the first item on that link^

i did a little bit of editing in camera raw and added some vignetting with photoshop cs4 but very very mild editing.

Holy shyt, UR CAR IS MONEY!!!! that thing is on POINT!! one of the best AM's I've seen. but man you should get some halo's!!! then it would look even sicker. I have an AM, blacked out roof with the same custom work on the headlights, except with halo's, and I gotta tell you, it turns heads.

** LE-37t has an anodized silver lip. not a polished lip.
full polish has a mirror reflection.
i had my LE-37s done in a full polish lip.


but your car is looking awesome dude.
if you're ever looking to sell your wheels, let me know.
i'm definitely interested.
