Update 053009
Finally got the issue fixed. Apparently the uploader was having conflicts with Google Gears. Now that that’s fixed, I can upload stuff again. *Yay, applaud now* Anyways…there’s really not much to update. No big car events. Recently, I have just put aside all my car projects for the time being and decided to wait for the new CTR which supposedly coming to the US as the 9th generation Civic. Hopefully that turns out well. I like hatchbacks so I wished they would redesign a hatch.
Moving on, I’m going to somewhat busy these couple days. I’m redecorating my room…once a again..for the 9999th time. Seriously, if you ever saw how this room started out as and all the changes I’ve done to it, you’d be freaking amazed. And that figure below….not a toy. Cost lots of $$$ since I’m not saving for parts anymore, I can splurge on my nerdy hobbies.
Stupid Firefox
I would like to post, but the upload pictures thing isn’t working. I’ll post stuff whenever this piece of crap gets working.
Salvation Mountain
Well my parents wanted to go out to El Centro to this remote place with this “mountain”. So I didn’t have anything better to do, I went along. Wow…a 3 hour drive to the middle of nowhere for a 15minute stop looking at this pile of “artistic” junkyard. Its was cool in a sense, having a wild painting spree on everything, but just because one puts “Jesus” and “God” over everything doesn’t exactly say “Christianity”. There was random versus written on the mountains and walls, but in its entirety, it was actually getting creepy after while. Like there were like “shrines” in the caves and like little “hideouts” with windows. Idk. Pretty crazy place. Funny thing was that all the cars were domestics and the only running car was the Camry which the guy drove off in after like 1 minute we were there. What proves my point even more is that all the cars there were also imports. 
haha America. Lmao.
More Graphics
First was something I found on AnimePaper under Haruhi wallpapers. I thought it was a pretty cool idea so I did one with Konata. Meh, wasn’t really that great, but a cool concept.

Graphic Design
I’m pretty sure no one knows I do this, but I tend to find other peoples works and attempt to replicate it because they’re cool and I try to figure it out, but I obviously put my own style and spin on it. Otherwise, it would be boring. You might as well have just put whenever you want in to a template that does it for you.
Here’s some examples:
This one is just a copy of the background font style. I didn’t do the brushes and crap in the back. And the little cartoon version of me was done by a friend of mine.
This one had a bit more of a difficult time with because of the font style of the first one. It was really thin so I couldn’t tell if it was hollow or just super thin, so I just made it hollow. As you can tell, this style is my currentwater mark, but I might change it later on, knowing me.
Sunset Shoot
Bored, so we went out for a drive.
Street Fighter Shoes
My cousin did these for me on Eibach eve. If you want to see more of her stuff, its the link on the right side tool bar. “Mindy doodles”
Eibach Coverage: Part Seven (Final)
Nice color on the teg.
PANDA!!
Complete random lowrider.
And we’re done! woot!
Eibach Coverage: Part Six
Its a trap!! Seriously, if you ever pulled up to this Insight don’t even bother racing it, its got a K in there.
What doesn’t belong?
WTF is this?
Mugen (Moo Gen) CRV. Crave the JDM. Lol.
Still more.
Eibach Coverage: Part Five
I’m not one who thinks graphics are ricey. They can be pretty cool sometimes.
Supercharged.
Same cars tend to group together
I am definitely one to dislike rusted hoods. There’s a reason this one is next to the junk, no I’m kidding that was mean.
ARC box ^^d
Freaking huge ass turbo. Never been to the track either…which means its completely useless
Still more!
Eibach Coverage: Part Four
Yay Part Four.
No idea wtf this guy was thinking…
Ooo The legendary EG from SportCar Motion
Maybe I haven’t been in the “scene” long enough, but I have never heard of these wheels before
Old School
If you have an ITR at this show, you sure as hell aren’t special. Whether its Phoenix Yellow or Championship White, or even both. It doesn’t matter.
Still more to come…lots more.
Eibach Coverage: Part Three
ITB is always badass
There is plenty more to come…I just finished editing them so it will take some time to upload.
Eibach Coverage: Part Two
Just so you know, editing and uploading these pics are pretty much hell for me…
Don’t you just love strut bars that don’t do anything.
Now for Doods/Phase2 guys
Awesome Element.
Yeah Teggy. ^^d
Eibach Coverage: Part One
Ok, Eibach. Yay…Its was ok…but short lived imo. Its was cool. I love Hondas/Acuras, I like tuner cars and what not, but there only so much one can take…Non stop EGs, EJs, APs, DCs, and DAs. Way too popular. The nonstop sound of VTEC and exhaust. Jeez ppl chill out, we all know you have VTEC, NO ONE CARES! You are one of the 500 Hondas there dude. Anyways, I went up to LA yesterday afternoon after cleaning up my Teg and I crashed at my cousins (stickydiljoe fyi). I planned on crashing early so I could get up early the next day, but apparently stayed up finishing my anime series (Ga-Rei Zero for those who are curious) and playing Street Fighter 4. I got up around 6 and headed out at about 6:30 after doing the laying awake in bed crap because I was lazy.
The lot below was completely empty when we first arrived. Everyone was just lining up confused to where to go regardless of whether you were VIP, Booth, or guest. So I decided to be the smart person and parked there with my “caravan”. After a few minutes everyone started parking there. Meaning if you parked there, its because I let you. Lol. No, I’m kidding. I decided instead of walking around everytime a new car came in, I would wait for everyone to park and then take my time walking through the whole in one swoop. So I went to sleep in my car and woke to a full lot. Crazy. BTW, the teg right there in mine…the black one…
Just one of the 3 lines of cars waiting to get in.
This is way later. Like 3 hourse after I got there. Meaning after I woke up.
Yay, Doods…Phase2…whatever you call them now…
Cops as usual. Pulling people over and whatever. Too bad they can’t go inside. Suckers.
Spoon!
I spy something that doesn’t belong!
I don’t what to say about this one…
Just so we’re clear, this a coverage. Not a photo shoot. Just because I didn’t make them all artsy and stuff, don’t go calling me a bad photographer. Its simply photojourlism. Part 2…3…4….another huge batch coming up.
Sunday Film/Shoot
Well yesterday didn’t go as planned and neither did today. But you know me, I just work with what I got regardless of how bad things turn out. Went to La Jolla again, did some beach shots, not the sunset shots I wanted but that’s life.
Working on what footage I got. We’ll have to see how that goes. I’ll still have lots of editing to do.
Another Subaru commercial. This guy just stopped there. Blocking my shots. For a good amount of time, so I got pissed and made him into a picture.
Young people are the protagonists of life. (the title of my recent FB note)
This site isn’t always about cars you know?!
Its about photography and art. Cars just happen to be in the photos!
Saturday Shoot
I got up to a sunny Saturday and then went to eat. Got home, still sunny out. Then met up with my crew and started down the 5. Within minutes, the sky was black and I had to switch glasses. I mean really ridiculous. My usual empty lot was completely filled with people. I couldn’t find any of the drivers that I was supposed to meet up with besides one who broke down after half a run on a moutain. It was simply full of problems. I got some filming done I guess. Not really satisfied at all. But here are some pictures we got, since we were sitting around bored.
Get yours today!!! Lol.
Random open parts: Door hood hatch
Look at the shiny polish.
sitting around while the 240 was down
Darkstormcr was playing with my camera so i guess this is supposed to be artistic.
Stickers!
I had a couple stickers made just to try it out. I have about 12 of them in chrome. If you want one, its about $2 each. Not really making a profit from them, but if you think you want one to stick on or w/e. Just email me about getting one.
Update 050609
I finally made a Facebook fan page for this site, just because I can and did. So yeah. Just putting it out there. Anyways, I’ll still be doing that shoot this coming Saturday and I have some studio lighting equipment coming in next week so I’ll have lots to do. Plus, its Mother’s Day this coming weekend which means its my birthday too. Bleh. I don’t really care about that stuff, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Heading down to the junkyard on Friday to hopefully find some parts and fix that hideous bumper. Oh and I’m having some stickers made, hopefully, that will turn out pretty good. Nice clean and chrome.
Los Angeles
I went up to LA today, to visit my cousin(s). Joey wasn’t awake yet, so nothing car related. But I just went around with Mindy. Check out the Nucleus Gallery where they were having a Street Fighter art display. Man, if I had the money, I would have bought well over a couple thousand dollars in art. There was some really good stuff there. Go ahead and check out their current display, definitely worth looking at.
Anyways, we just walked around Little Tokyo for a while, and I discovered a couple anime shops where I went completely nerdy over and had to resist spending next month’s food money. Its was a pretty chill day.
Up coming posts: Film and Shoot at La Jolla Shores, Eibach!!!
Filming
Hey guys, the filming concept is coming to together pretty well, only thing I’m worried about is people showing up and getting ahold of some nicer quality cameras. If you guy want to come along, we’ll be meeting over at La Jolla Shores around 4 or 5 PM for an awesome sunset shoot, then some night filming, next Saturday. I went out today just because I didn’t want to be at home, but I didn’t really get any good shots out so whatever. Here enjoy…always a shot I wanted to do, but didn’t really care to do anytime. But do look forward to next weeks awesome shoot.
