LOL usually people don't ask they just take pics on their own. :D
But seriously I'd like to have some better quality shots of mine, maybe I will get lucky.......
I really don't appreciate those guys around my area.. some people leave their business card, notes or throw a pitch to me that they wanna shoot my car.. but then tell me the session is gonna be like $300 and i only get 8 hi-res photos for myself... like whut. I didn't ask you to shoot my car, you wanted to. LOL ?? plus, i do photography myself also, my shit stays in the trunk of my car. Foh. ??

It also gets really weird and tricky when you start getting into who owns the photos.

Photo use and copyright ownership are not the same, and the latter can be rather complex due to multiple factors . Unless you don’t care, you should sign a contract and make sure you understand your rights and the photographer’s. As a former pro-photographer (now hobbyist), I can say typically photographers want to retain photo copyrights and grant limited use to the client.

yeah "copyrights" is what I was thinking of. Thanks for clarifying

47.5 foot pounds of dork. haha.. good one.

Never had good feel for effectiveness of braces. Did you have issue with NVH prior to install and notice any reduction?
Got to have the right amount of dork! ?

I do notice a decrease in vibration in steering wheel. I haven't had a chance to take it through any twisties yet since install. From what driving I have done it has been more rigid throughout turns. I'll be able to give a better answer this weekend

I can say that I felt it immediately once I installed my front Cusco brace and rear power brace. Reduce body flex.

Took my car to the Toyota dealership and had my oil changed. They damaged one of my Maxton side skirts and tried to send me home without letting me know. Obviously, as car guys, we all notice any damage done to our cars and I noticed from about 10 feet away.... that disgusting pit your stomach feeling sank in.

I went back inside and asked to speak to the service department manager. I told them my car was damaged and no one reported it. They admitted having done it but said "we didn't realize it was damaged, we thought it only got snatched off and was reattached"......

So I got the service manager to go on Maxtons website and order me a new set, as well as write up an invoice referring this case to my body shop of choice to have the skirts replaced and any other damages fixed and paid for by Toyota.

How in the hell are people this shitty? They weren't even going to tell me about the damage. They were just going to send me home. The really scary part is that half of the mounting hardware wasn't even put back into place. Smh..SMH...
