Coliseum

Post by WhiteArrow3800 »

I drive by the Hampton Coliseum all the time but only just recently thought about using it to take pictures with. Turned out to be a great spot, I really want to go back for night shots when the place is lit up, but they only light it up for events, which would crowd it up.... They light it up around Christmas/New Years with colors though, I'll just wait till then.

In the mean time I'll share what I got, hope you like :)

As always booze, the car looks awesome!! The background is simply stunning! I like observing architecture that's unique like that.

Love the b&w look. Black calipers, ditch the lisence plate frames and take care of the soot above the exhaust and we have a big winner.

Thanks guys!

As for the soot, yeah that's quite a bit annoying. This thing is running rich (working on tuning currently) plus this motor is burning some oil as well. The drivers side though and ONLY on the driver's side, I'm still not exactly sure how it happened but somewhere along the line it got extra hot around the exhaust tip and the bumper cover there is actually deformed/melted a bit and turned brown. :???: I could definitely have minimized it if I had washed the car prior to this but this was middle of the week during my commute and believe it or not it poured heavy rain a few hours after.

Looks good Booze.

Now it's time to get the other car sold and get Chloe fixed!

I don't think it needs to be lowered all that bad...
