    Exhaust, wheels, suspension, led interior lights and other minor items done. Polished with HD Speed and Meguiar's cutting disc. Ran out off time so 2 quick coats of Opti-Seal to finish. Will try Poxy next time. Had used Optimum GPS first time when car was new (1 month 600 miles ago) and IMHO Speed does a better job cleaning, polishing and correcting. Used Optimum microfiber pad with GPS. Who knows maybe user error. Anyway loved Speed, smells great. Noticed bugs seems to like it too, just me or anyone else notice.

    HD Speed and Opti-Seal is a killer combo!

    Car looks really good, and yes, I too have noticed bugs seem to like HD Speed.

    Thanks, have grown to like the "glass look" quite a bit.

    Thanks, nerve racking waiting for wheels to be built and hoping it all works and looks good.

    Stole the HD Speed / Opti-Seal idea from one of your posts, you are spot on as always.

    This vehicle and your other ones from previous posts all look fantastic. May I ask what camera and lenses you're using?

    Thanks. The Audi was shot with a Sony NEX-7 with a Sony E18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 which I got in the last couple months. Previously all shots taken with a Canon EOS 50D with a Canon 18-200mm F/3.5-5.6.



    The above shot is ISO 100 36mm f13 1/30 shutter speed. I use a tripod and these Audi photos are actually 5 shots at -2, -1, 0, +1, +2 to capture range. I then process in Photomatix and Aperture3 to produce final image. I usually shoot in Raw format, although for these I was rushing and forgot to change camera setting, not a big deal since to post Photobucket hacks down the huge file size. The NEX-7 is a 24 MP mirror-less camera with full sensor and is fantastic IMHO. I use macro and wide angle lenses on occasion but the zoom is the work horse. Hope this helps.
