Washed in the Rain
 

Yesterday I had planned to wash the car, realign the bumper, clean up under the hood, and a few other minor things....but I had to take my brother to a concert between 10 & 11:00 (he plays Violin) so that basicaly took the morning away, so then i come home and it starts to sprinkle, and I decided, w/e i'll just wash the car, so i did, and i took the Licence tag holder off and cleaned up behind that a little bit and took some pics before i put it back on... it was raining so of course there were clouds, so alot of the pics came out dark-ish or grey, so when i was resizing them i lightend the ones that needed it...i also managed to strain a muscle in my neck...it hurts to turn my head right...i think it happend when I was crouching under the bumper to see what size socket i needed to take the Plates off...

dont mind the water drops, i would have dried it but seeing how it was raining off and on all day...

This is about as clean as i got it, keep in mind that there was proably a few years worth of dirt and a few leaves in there...idk how the leaves mandaged to get behind that...

This made me a bit more upset too...the hose took a big chip of paint off from both sides...the paint was already peeling but not this noticable...

this side pissed me off more, cuz instead of chiping off longways it chiped off towards the lights...

Thats it...how'd they turn out?

I think they turned out great. Nothing wrong with pics of a wet Bonne.

Blingin' in the rain 8)

You've got some nice shots in there. They could all use all little levels adjustment & some sharpening. I'll post a couple examples if you'd like to see the difference.

Dunno if I want a car with "Booze" in the plate LOL

Around here you'd be ASKING to get stopped LOL

Nice car though man.....I hate to see them damned holes in the front bumpers from the plates....

yea...but the plates are a good topic starter :lol:

and yea i hate those holes too, one more reason to put that plate bracket back on... :?

Good shots and HUH! BOOZE? YA That would get ya tailed till ya did something wrong here too. LOL

Here they are after adjusting levels & a little sharpening.
