Project Tightie: Smurf Edition
I'm sure as you know, I like to switch up the look of my car frequently.

Don't mind the amateur pictures, I used a iPhone 4s and a Canon XTI. I'm looking for a photographer to get a awesome shoot going, if anyone can help... Please PM me.

The iPhone 4s captures the blue much nicer then the Canon, IMO. I couldn't capture the "actual" color since it does look slightly different in person. I can't complain, I love the color.

Let me know what you think.

TE-37s are definitely an interesting JDM take on an //M3. I would suggest a size larger, but it seems like with all of your track work you wouldn't want to. Excellent!

Have you had any clearance issues with the front lip? I'm in the market and not sure what direction that I want to take.
