New pictures of the Boxster
 

After seeing all the classy pictures you guys take of your cars I have decided to start playing around with settings on the cameras and daylight.

These where taken at dusk with a very long exposure.
I know I should move the trash can, I'll get that next time.

Another picture---large files
 

Here is another picture this time I really went for an different angle.

Side angle--Large file
 

Another picture but this time a more traditional (unimaginative) angle.

I decided to add another picture

Very Nice. I especially like that first shot. That thing positively GLEAMS.

Any idea how long the exposure was? And what's that supernova in the center front? Reflection of the last traces of sun light? (I'm thinkin' it's not a flash.)

its extra foglights man

looks good dooode, i like it

As DJOMLAS said they are extra foglights. You can see them in this picture. The lights are mounted behind the mesh screen in the center of the bumper.

The lights are pencil beams, they have a very narrow beam and are very bright. They lights are aimed in such a way that the lights reflect off of signs and other road markings far into the distance. And they do not blind drivers. I use them on unlit and empty interstates and back country roads.

The lights are wired into a footwell switch mounted to the left of the radio, it looks OEM.


The exposure was set at 2.5 seconds. and sitting on a stool, (tripod needed)

DJ,



What are S S cutouts??

Anything to do with your muffler??

haha, well SS for short shifter, and cutouts as exhaust cutouts.
i typed all that on my blackberry, so it looks goofy.

Do you have electronic cutouts or manual?

Looks awesome man, try using a cheap tripod and either the timer or a remote control shutter for long exposure shots like this, get them crystal clear.

Anyhow, can you please post a daytime close up of your extra lights, they look very cool.

Your car is looking sweet, its unbelievable to think its done 150,000, what a car.

More pics please :)

Lookin' great man. Will you et me the infor on the side intakes please.

I love the look of the intakes on the car. They are very easy to install, all that has to be done is just remove the intake that is there already and replace the current outside vent with this new one.


Thanks for the compliments.

I will get a few pictures of the lights in the day time, I am out of town until this weekend, i will post a few on Monday.

thanks for the photo tips I am a rank amature when it comes to photos any input is appreciated.

Thanks

Another picture

I will get a few new pictures this weekend, I need to post some with the top down.

looks cool man.
i like the intakes on the side, but im concerned about the passenger side, its meant for the warm air to leave the engine bay, and while you are driving, isnt it just pushing it all back in?

btw, the cutouts are manual, only used for autoX and sometimes wheni just wanna mess around a little.

Nice alloy wheels! What are they?

The wheels are Alt 349

As far as the heat from the passenger intake: the temputure of the engine has stayed the same as before and after the mod. I am not positive that at 60 mph the original design was able to withdraw heat unless there was some sort of pressure drop because of the design. So in other words I have noticed anything detrimental while these have been installed. They are purely cosmetic.


DJ,
Do you have a sound file or movie of your cutouts open??

yeah, its in my cardomain page, 1st thing that you will see, its imbeded in the page, just click play

The cutouts sound really good.

Mine are going to go on the 1st of next year.
There will be plenty of videos then.

gary your headlights look fantastic!

love how they look 993/997-ish...

is it a cover? tint? please please post pix of how you did it

many thanks

Wow where did u get those air intake covers on the side, do they direct air flow smoothly into the engine?

the headlights are a tint, really a headlight film in black that I cut out the headlight portion. They have been on the car for a few years with no problems.
