I picked #1, but I'm not a fan of the front windows being down.

Well, #1 kinda downplays that.

You know, I just noticed two things:

1. In none of the pictures can you really notice the huge crack in my windshield. lol

2. In that third shot, I came dangerously close to exposing my plate, which would disqualify that shot. Oops. lol Good thing I wasn't a couple inches to my right. Even at it's normal size, and even knowing what my plate is, I can't read it. Austin or Herc, it's still within the rules, correct? I'd forgotten that I'd put my plate back on at that point.

As long as no letter or numbers are legible.

I picked number two because it shows the color of the paint.

#1 has way too many shadows going on for a calander depicting the GP

#3 Just way too much sky and the monument coming out of the hood kills it for me plus the ugly street light up in the corner and the sign for the memorial just doesn't work for me.

In all 3 pics it looks like the front passenger side quarter panel is all dented, is that just shadows?

I agree with Hercman everything.

2 is good. If he roll the window up but he has really bad tint bubble. See his pictures from other thread so you will know what I'm talking about.

I would love to, but I don't have time. I need to get my car repainted too (you should see the other side and hood ) but I just don't have the money at the moment. It'll get done, but it seems like every time I get my credit card paid off, something else breaks on my car and costs me a fortune to fix.

I'll have a MUCH better picture if we do the calendar next year. I'll have my car looking good, and I'll have more time to scout out a location. This time, I just had to take pics as is, and I just had to go and snap pics when I thought I was in a good spot. It was very hurried this year.

Wow, so #2, the one I didn't want, is gonna win. lol

If y'all think that is best for the calendar, that's what I'll submit. I'll give until tomorrow for any of you slackers to vote and turn things around. wink

#2 looks like there's a dent in your fender... It is my favorite of the three, but I would retake it and try to get a nicer angle, maybe put the windows up too.

Window up won't work the tint is bubbled.

The only thing that throws me off of two is the reflection on the fender. It looks bent.

I get that! lol It really does look like the fender is bent - in almost all of the shots. In reality, it's get a very slight one - you probably wouldn't notice it unless you were standing right next to it, or were looking for it. I don't know why it looks so much worse in ALL of my shots. Doesn't really matter which angle. In that shot, it even looks like the bumper is bent, even if you zoom in. It's not. Just not a very good lighting situation I guess.

*sigh* There's so many thing I need to do to get my car looking it's best...
