The B&W one is really cool thanks for doing it. Its pretty amazing how just framing something a little diffrent can make such a big diffrence. And did you photoshop the power polls out? or did they just get bleached out by the white? They were anoying me I'm glad there gone.

Oh and I probably should of said but the Pad its self is the reflection you see on the door. The picture below shows the pad now and before. The third one shows where I was parked, the building at the base of the tower is where I was parked all thats left of the building is the wall you see in the back ground.

I thought about parking under the launch pad itself but its sort of a memorial and it just didnt seem right to do.

In regards to the fog lamps its a MY05 SE so I'm guessing they where an option. If I can score a set for a decent price I will be adding them. As for the plate, I live in the great state of Florida and we only have rear plates and I hope it stays that way for a long time to come Very Happy
