Kingsford Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 If you notice some light swirls and have time to do a quick correction, do it. If you don't... don't!! Advice taken! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug123 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 And I thought it looked great the last time I saw it in Tustin. Now it's over the top! It is SO shiny, it's like black glass. Simply Amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kustom_FX Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Dylan that thing looks liquid! That is just AMAZING.. I have never wanted another black vehicle until I have witnessed what can be achieved with time, patience, practice and Adam's products. Simply beautiful!

ChevyMan23 Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Dylan, I showed these pics to my fiance(she wants an Avalanche), and she said "I hope he won't mind having a twin across the country, b/c that's what I want.)I knew I loved her for a reason......lol...... So, there ya go, you'll have a twin sometime next year, unless you're interested in selling....seriously... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 LOL... there seems to be a rash of Dylan vehicle impersonators lately. Mario just completed a detail on a guy from the TBSS site who had made his TBSS look EXACTLY like mine, and openly admitted he was pretty much trying to recreate my truck LOL... Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 They're all shot in full manual, but the settings varied a lot based on the light, angle, distance, etc. Examples: Focal Length: 20.0mm (35mm equivalent: 30mm) Exposure Time: 0.0020 s (1/500) Aperture: f/5.6 ISO Equiv.: 500 Whitebalance: Auto Metering Mode: center weight Exposure: Manual Exposure Mode: Auto bracketing Focal Length: 18.0mm (35mm equivalent: 27mm) Exposure Time: 0.017 s (1/60) Aperture: f/3.5 ISO Equiv.: 1000 Whitebalance: Auto Metering Mode: center weight Exposure: Manual Exposure Mode: Auto bracketing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad519 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I'm not a Lowered Guy...See Sig But that thing looks good. I wish I had the skill and Patience to make my paint look that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 Hey, takes all kinds... I love the look of a lifted truck, just can't functionally do it. 3 of my first 5 rides were lifted ('87 wrangler, '99 ECSB S10, '01 CC4x4 S10) and they were fun. I've just gone 'low life' ever since. Its a little less common around Cali now a days as everyone lifts and plus with a little one to get in and out of it all the time (each day picking him up from school) it just makes more sense. I think if I had the coin to have 2 trucks I'd probably have something mildly lifted as well. It was really nice driving Chase's 3500HD duramax with that huge lift on it after the detail... I can certainly see the appeal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I definitely wasn't knocking it Back in high school there was a crew that ran around in lowered Mazda's and we thought they were silly but you're Avalanche looks Really NICE.

Team Adam's Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 Is there much interest in lowered stuff out your way? For some reason I picture it not being all the popular to lower stuff in MS. BTW - I love your truck with the flares.... such a tough look!

Brad519 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 There's not really a lowered scene around here. 20 years ago a lot of the "ricers" were dropping them but the large majority of trucks are 4x4's and we shoot people who lower 4x4's Kidding I originally hated the "flare look" but my tires were eating up the lower panel with rock pecks so I went ahead and got a set. I really like them now and think the truck looked "plain" without them. I just picked up some touch up paint for the chips now just got to order some Lanka Blob Stuff. The video on the yellow camaro sold me on Lanka. (Can't remember the guys name who posted that how to video..but thanks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightMare Silverado Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Im like a backwards dylan. Ive had 2 low cars and now lift. 95 suburban that would scrape if the freeway dipped too much, charger was dropped 2.5 inches and now the 7 inches of lift on the truck.

ArmyAcadia09 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Brad there is a lot of that in Killeen too...gettin a break from that, Iraqis have no clue about vehicle mods....well those kind. I have HOWEVER seen LOTS of car wash stations. Adam, the market is untapped here, both M companies probably wouldnt dare come around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
