those on the hatch are 5lug 114

softboxes diffuse light, making it spread more and not be as harsh.

i like them, but i was so on 80s style rap shoots where the lighting was harsh if used. im so on the 80s abd 90s. I just like a edgy raw style more. if it doesnt meet the rules of whats hot, im still smilin!

big ups once again to the info sean. always a pleasure our chatting.

Ohh no trust me I'm all for harshness. I can't even begin to count all of the "your photos have too much contrast" comments I've gotten. But anything that falls out of gamut is an eyesore IMO but if you're into it that's cool. Photography is totally subjective and I really like it when people do what they want not what other people will like. One of the reasons so many people hate on my work is because I don't care, I have always and probably will always have "too much contrast" and my pics will look too "fake". That is unless someone is paying me to make them look different And for sure Ben I'm always down to voice opinions and ideas

i guess im going to bring my bronze mf8s to wheels technique in santa clara to refinish and color match ....

























<U>Really Bad Center Cap hole damage!</U>









So I decided to get the lips all redone, face touched up, and caps fixed. I was also considering painting, anodizing, or color chroming them like Arn's or Jimmy (Tronics Del Sol with BLUE MR5's) but couldn't make up my mind.

I wanted something differant but NOT CRAZY! So I decided on getting them just a clean simple polish only and have the bolts powder coated BLACK -

They had my wheels for 3 days and charged me <U>$500 </U>for the rash and blemish clean-up and polish. I gave them the wheels with tires mounted and they didn't charge me to re-mount anf balance them - Jeff is the person to talk to as he hooked it up!

Tell me what you think...good or constructive feedback!

I personally love how they turned out! Thanks for reading guys.....

oh thats very true, but I think they'd be much better if the rivets matched or were chrome, thats all. Stillvery nice, they might look real hot on a black car
