I drove over to AeroTect and had Francisco do these for me. It's the lightest tint they have, and I really like how it came out.

Haha, Rashid knows me too well... I would never put any fake/knockoff stuff on my car - just doesn't feel right. My tails are 100% authentic USDM IS-F tails, with AeroTect overlays on the white portions.

Quick photography question: I understand why the lights are there from the long exposure, but where's the car itself? I would've thought the car would be in the pic too, albeit as a blur. (obviously I'm a photography noobie )
Photography is all about light. The reason you can't see the cars in the pictures is because the panels of the cars don't emit light - they reflect it, and they're just not reflecting enough light to be visible in those long exposures. You can see the lights on the cars because these actually emit light (and of course are much brighter) than the dark panels of the moving cars.

Heh, you need to take that camera out of the bag more often. I wanna see some Phat Monkey pictures from SEMA!!!

Thanks again for the comments everyone!

If I had a chance and time to gather all posted pictures and make them into posters, I'll make yours one of them! Great pictures! Hit me up some time when you're going to take some pictures again! Peace!

Haha, that was the original intent of these plates - I've had them for for over two years and was originally intended for show/photo use. I've been running these everyday on my car for about two months now though...

I LOVE that place - one of my favorite places to drive I've ever found.

Thanks Vik! You're right - in the shade, Glacier Frost takes on a very silvery look.

I've been in California for almost 3 years without a California plate. Of course, I've only been pulled over once (for not having ANY plates on), so not driving like an a-hole helps out too...
