Some of my work

Here are some photos I have done for a local car club at their various meets. The pictures of the tuners and night shots are photos from the Supra Nationals two years ago. I plan on shooting my car soon after I get a few more parts for it. But here are some photos I did:

Flickr: fisher-fisher photography's Photostream

I just added the link because I couldn't find the link/code necessary to upload them on the fourm. If you have a problem with the link let me know. Also this is like 10% of my actual work I will post more in a few minutes.

Welcome to the forum Mr. Bubbles. Nice pictures by the way, the white Neon on your Flickr looks kind of like one I see around Angleton from time to time.

Oh man, I hope it hasn't been nothing too serious involving your health.

Not too much has been going on lately, the last meet was in Austin around the end of January during the CupCake Meet. Don't you have the A/T KWSC'ed Fit?

I had a 95 Chevy Tahoe as my first car but some lady hit my driver side door and flipped me over a few times and totaled my tahoe (the stupid lady had no license), then I had a Honda Pilot for a little over a year, and then I finally got a 2010 Honda Fit Sport! I love it so much! So let me hear from the Houston people or surrounding area if ya'll wanna set up a photoshoot! Just ask if you wanna see some of my work


If you read through this thread you will notice that the biggest fit concentration in Texas is Houston. Goodluck getting them to show up to a fit get together tho. We always seem to have had the smallest turnouts in houston

Anyone around the Waco or DFW area need some rubber. I have some Falken Ziex 512's 205/45/16 with great life left. 80-90% tread.

(And if you're wondering, Adam, they're not the ones from the stocks I bought).

of course not the ones i had on there were dunlop direzza DZ101s I haven't used falkens in that size since early 2008. Those falkens are the best looking tire I've used in that size. But the dunlops out performed them slightly.

yeah. Unfortunately only Discount tire offers that falken anymore. no one else. the DZ101s are for the price one of the best all around tires.

not trying to piss in the kool aide just stating the facts. We would have events in houston for the houston people and more out of towners would show up.

i feel ya. I've tried meeting locals here and I don't get much results. I have better luck meeting fellow fit members at shows. Imma try to get back into the scene though as soon as I get back on my feet; so many setbacks this year it's ridiculous!

So I'm thinking about selling the enkei rpf1 type II's and going with... drum roll please.......... these knock-offs.



I want to do a staggered wheel setup and 15x8 & 15X7. My question to you intelligent Texas people is would it look funky with different offsets? The 15X8 is +25 and the 15X7 is +35. Since it's a flat faced wheel I think it would look fine. What do you think?

i think that the 15's in basket weave would look silly just cuz they are 15s
on the GE 16s would probably be better. just my opinion tho. And Axis only offers that wheel in limited coloration compared to what they used to have. I wanted those in white and its not an option anymore =*(

But BBS wheels can be had for a good price and they would actually be 3 peice instead of 1.

I'm not a fan of staggered on a FWD car but if you are these can be had. filled and redrilled then change the barrels. If you want them a different offset
