car looks great but like lowslowneon said use a tripod!!!! Your pictures will come out alot better. Also when you have the tripod use the self timer so dont even move the camera when you push the shutter button so it won mess up the focus.

 

Cool car except for the rims and tires. Of course that's just my opinion. I can imagine what the ride is like in that car withhardly anyrubber underneath you. No matter what, I will never get into this fad of big rims and skinny tires. I just don't like the looks and what it does to the suspension of the car. I guess I'm just old school. Gimme a nice regular 14" or 15" rim with a nicewide tire and I'm good to go.

This is the look I like.

Haha

 

LOL!

 

Thanks. Yeah, the rims are painted bright silver and clear-coated, they basically are the same color as the car (and for those wondering, if my car was a different color like green, no I would not have green rims lol).

Thank you sir... and for those who mentioned it, the stripes aren't even done yet (lol)... I still havent put the pinstriping on the front bumper like it is on the rest of the car, and I still need to rub out the paint stripes and clear-coat them. BTW I like your car too Midnight. BTW youre nuts to snap a photo off while going 120... lol.

Nope, she wasnt thrilled about it this time, lol.

Yeah, #12 is the only photo that I modified a bit... there was a big F250 in the background and it looked WAY closer to the front of my car than it really was... it looked like it was eating my Neon. So it had to go.

Im fond of that one too, but I will try to get a nicer pic of it soon with a less "shakey" hand or a different camera.

Well, the clearest photos that you see were either taken with the camera on the ground, up against a rim or solid object, or resting on my knee. The blurry ones were taken just holding it... I really wish I knew how to crank up the shutter speed, but its not the most advanced camera in the world either... Thanks for the compliments about the car though.

Blame both. LOL.

I like this one too... maybe a candidate for my signature... without the Ford in it, of course.

Like I said, working on it... maybe a 2x4 and a C-clamp will help... lol



FYI they are 17" rims with almost 50,000 miles on the rims now. Ive hit some pretty big holes, but never bottomed out the tires into the lip of the rim. It does ride a little "rougher" but you get used to it real quick... because ittheycan literallyrun circles around that 14" wheel package you like all day long and never squeel or slide a bit. Youre probably one of the few people I met that actually claim a 14" rim looks better on a Neon than a 16" or 17". The better a car handles, the more the suspension will get pounded, and the better and lower profile tire you will need to do it, period. You cant get performance handling without making a sacrifice or modification to these things. And as far as being "old school" or not getting into the "fad" of it all... dude its just a 17" 5-spoke GT wheel... not a 19" spinner.The style hasbeen around longer than you, so Ipersonally wouldnt call it a "fad." If you really like what you have, its all good, but I guess we're just opposites. Besides, I LOVE to replace struts. I cant get enough of it!

Dude if I put 14" rims on that car, it would make the stripes look completely gay. ... No thanks.

 

What kind of camera do you have?

 

A really one.

 

So did you lower the rear's with those ghetto ring clamps just like you did to the front? how does it ride with those things?
