By either using a rig then removing it via photoshop.

Orrr by using a car to lead with and take pics from.


Both require the use of an SLR to set exposure times.

They're the EDM/GDM visor combo. Just like the JDM ones, except both visors have an uncovered mirror.

Had some fun with the editing. Very surreal feel to the colors that I enjoyed, sort of a Halloween-ish feel.

They don't "flip" like the stock ones do, but yes, you can tilt them.

Duplicate post from NWP:

Me and the brosef both working on our vehicles.. his rear pinion gear had chunks out of it so an automatic locker is on the way in, I was just taking off my axleback and putting the stock muffler on.


While under there discovered some scary things. My beaks bar, which i've had on for like 2 months, is already ****edddd up. It's slightly bent as well as these scratches.


And on of the sway bar mount bolts SNAPPED off. I couldn't believe it. But it's had only three bolts holding it for however long so I'll hold out on fixing that.

Godddd I need some actual coilovers, or something that isn't so ****ing soft. I'm tired of shredding the underside of my car up.

As seen in the pics I'm not even that dumped.. It's just my springs are so soft they constantly compress enough to scrape ****.

Looks like that WWRS copy I found on the freeway is really a WWRS.

1st gen Mugen copy FTW.

Do they even make them anymore?
