Nice pics :D

It's best to take pictures of cars when it's partly cloudy, then the clouds act like the umbrellas photographers own and spread the light evenly :wink:

I worked out part of the problem had my camera on Macro  :faint: (only noticed when replacing the memory card)  :rolleyes:

Usually do our car shots at dawn or dusk for the same reason...

Hi Dazz  :)

Looks really good mate, simple as it seems fitting the mud flaps (as I've done) is a good idea.
Seeing the photo's of Trish's car ..... it would beg the question 'Why would anyone (like me) pay an extra couple of grand+ for a Trophy badged one' ?  :D

Bump.. Trish always wanted wheels like this on her car but they weren't on offer at a fair price until now (on special at Bob Janes for $99..... so I have offered to get her wheels switched to these and sell her other ones on ebay or gum tree  :goodjob: Looking into it on Monday  :winker:

They look nice Dazz.
So they're the same size & you'd just get the tyres swapped over?

Yep.. Like we did when we got the car.. Trish intends keeping the car for perhaps 10 years or more (will probably only have like 80,000 kms on it by then. So I figure she may as well have wheels she really likes  :happydance:

They look nice but I've always had a preference for something with less spokes as thay are much easier to clean.
But I guess that'll be your problem, not Trish's. :happydance:

Trish and I both like really spokey wheels on smaller cars for some reason (My Hybrid has quite a few spokes on the wheels too.. The inside of these Wolfrace wheels are Gloss Black so shouldn't be too bad... :goodjob:
