Calendar Submissions !!

Is the real calendar submissions thread starting in October? Is that what I remember?

It is, but personally i think it should be moved up. That way, it gives more people more time, and better weather to wash/detail their cars and get some better photos. Thats just my $.02 though.

Jesus Pud, what bulbs are you using for your license plate? They look pretty blue, is that what they usually look like or is it just the picture?

He said in another thread that he was just getting the bluish look from the camera... The title of the thread was like Fresh 3 liter Whoring

Do all the BAT springs with Koni's come out as low as yours? I know you said you and only one other person had that kind of drop with BAT springs, but is it because of the Koni strut perch height?

No, not at all. Its just my springs I think. They could possibly be a defect (not necessarily a bad one) that was not caught in the QC process, who knows.

White LED bulbs, they are nearly pure white in person and retardo bright too. Came out blue for the pictures though. Im sure if you put them next to stoobies car (which has blue) the difference would be more than noticeable.

You can, but when you see the quality of the shots submitted, those don't have a chance. So in the rules we suggest that you put some thought into the location. Its about the whole shot more than the car. You can have the hottest car on CEG and have a 100% stock car beat you because of the picture quality/composition.

I'll get the official thread up by the weekend because you all need to remember:
Only pictures in the official thread will be looked at. Its too hard for us to look for everyone's separate "calendar shots" threads.
So anyone posted in here will have to repost the pics in that thread.

Edit: not to bash on Bagged, but to use his pictures to show something...
Even if you only look at the first 2 pictures where you can see only car and sky. Those kind of artistic shots COULD make it but shot 1 you can see a sign post and shot 2 you can see the camera/person in the reflection of the car. I'm not saying that the pics are bad, but 2 pictures were ruled out last year for these reasons.
