I took these pictures right before sunset. They turned out okay; could have been better. Nevertheless, here they are:

I really appreciate it, man. I am decent with HDR. However, I have never tried it on a car before.

I usually shoot with a 20D and L lense(s). Yesterday was a spur of the moment shoot. At that time, I only had my cheap 300D and 50mm f1.8 lense (in the trunk).


Here is another okay picture. Looks like the first one, but from a slightly different angle:

Give it a shot bro. It comes out pretty nice (if your into the HDR look.) Here's a HDR photo of a Supra taken from Ascari_2 on Supraforums.com. I'd say give it a shot, your black paint will bring out all kinds of reflections, etc. I'm pretty new to this stuff though. What program do you do HDR with? Here's the pic..

I would suggest picture #1 or 3 in post #2 for a HDR pic. If you have a RAW file and a RAW editor, you can use the editor to produce different exposure of one picture.

Thanks for all the comments, guys. I will be getting a TTE front lip (very subtle) for it soon. The lip cleans up the front quite a bit. Maybe some coilovers in the future.
