First long exposure shots

[Dave_The_BMXER]

I detailed the exterior of my car last weekend (clay/polish) and after decided to try some long exposure shots. Here are the results.

The white balance is off on both of them but not as bad as before photo shop.

Thanks guys, I am thinking of trying it again in a more trafficked (and less mosquito) area.

nice clean ride

Cool! Car looks great too. Can you coils wind down more?

[Dave_The_BMXER]

^ Nope, that's all the way down on BCs (in the front). I've been in contact with them regarding a custom set up to go half an inch lower.

And thanks.

I didn't measure my sport lines but I think slightly. My issue with the sport lines was the back was lover than the front. Currently from the ground to the middle of the arch of my fender is 24" all around. I would like to bring the front down to 23.5" My goal is no finger gap all around.

The ride is incomparable. The BC's feel great.

i've always wanted to do a long exposure on a road, or highway - but i'm worried about safety/security though.

just a random guy setting up a tripod and an expensive DSLR on a bridge looking over a highway...

oshawa isn't that safe!

I had the same issue with the sportlines as well. The rears were lower, even when I took out my subs.
Definitely give my contact a call. I'm still not done my car yet, everyday we're trying something newer. Just keep in mind, for the 1 day I had mine that low, it rubbed so badly that the shield was done for on both sides. You might not have that issue since you're on 17s.

Still Rebel XT is a nice camera

Ya it's done me pretty well. I shot that with the kit lens if I remember correctly. But I normally shoot with a Sigma wide angle.
