actually there is no photoshop, editing or any kind of adjustment done to these pics.

these are click button on camera upload to internet pics

as most of you know when you take pics at night with a high quality camera the exposure time is a long time due to the camera taking in as much light as possible

well if this is so you cut the flash off, take a picture while the camera is trying to suck up light you give it alittle help. run over to the car, take a flashlight(i used a 2million candlelight spotlight) and accent the portion of the car you want to show up.

now you have to point the flashlight in the same direction the camera is pointing or you will get the actual flashlight in the pic

but the pics were pitch black with only the moon for light. highest exposure i could get. and a quick brush of the flashlight.

you have to judge how long to use the flashlight for yourself. alot of these pics were taken multiple times to get the right amount of light

ex. the many side shots. as the go down the car got more time in the spotlight...lol

Car looks great and I am diggin' the paint scheme. Jus' my opinion, I think if you were to put a white pinstripe between the Black and Red, it would look sicker!

The only thing that doesn't sit right with me is the way the hood's paint line doesn't match that of the headlight's, but other than that I love it, way to be different

it was done that way for open hood presentation. the lines flow really well looking at the car in person.

you want a membership offer. you have officially joined the we hate something about reaper assosiation.

in this club we complain about things we dont like on reaper. tail lights, two tone paint scheme, how high the black goes on the car and numeruos other thing we monotone cars dnt believe in.

seriously man look at the light chrome, black, red, they match the car, no yellow on the car anywhere

and im not trying to be an *******. i appreciate the critizim, but if you dnt like them on your car dnt put them on there. whats wrong with me putting them on mine. buy me some lt1 taillights, mail them to me, ill put them on and send you a pic,

What about a pinstripe that is red/black/red? Kinda hard to exactly portray what I am thinking of, but a thin red line on top of a slightly thicker black with another thin red underneath. Something to break up the abrupt red to black. Don't get me wrong, I actually like it cause it is something different.
