Newest Pics of my '89 TA / Also neon pics (an attempt)

Hey guys, I figured I'd share my latest pics of the TA. If anyone saw my last post on the appearance board, the shop that repaired my front-end damage REALLY screwed up and oversprayed on the rest of my car, the windows, taillights, and rims. Its all off now except for the overspray on the rims. Guess I'll take care of that later. So...in order, here's one pic of the damage, one pic from this Friday, and one from tonight with the neons on. I still need a better way to photograph the neons. The one guy around here that has the gunmetal GTA w/ the purple-ish neons, his pic came out great. I'm gonna try again one night.

Nice pics buddy, nice pics. When are you gonna use that Zaino??? Damian looks sweeeeeEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeT:hail: :hail: :hail:

Also, just for the future ... I think u should take your liscense plate off the dash when you're taking pics. Might make your pics even more perfect.

Pss: I'll trade ya cars too, without a doubt.

Yeah, that is a sweet car. I would also take the plate out of the window since it does no good there. Cops can still write you a ticket for "Improper Display" so if you're gonna get a ticket involving the front plate, might as well leave it off completely. Someday I want a car just like yours, except in black of course

If I had that one, I wouldn't paint it, as much as I like black. Yours looks too sweet.

Looks good, I like the windshield banner and the neons. Rims look really good too, can't see the overspray though.
