Odd.. You basically take several images of the exact same thing from the same angle at different exposures and merge them together. Its supposed to delete shadows and dark spots in some places, enhance contrast, etc..

Guess you didn't use that.

In that case I guess you could say yes. Except I did it off one exposure and one photo. Changed the exposures etc in photoshop cutting what i want to change out etc. Takes about 30-60min a photo to do 100% correctly and obviously would have a huge range in which to alter to your likings.

So technically, Yeah. You should check out using PS to do that for you, a lot of the results are the same. Looks killer, btw!

talking about Smurf..I saw a blue with white top Toyota FJ cruiser that was driving next to a smurf blue Miata..It was pretty funny to see both right next to each other. I can totally see a smurf blue FJ towing Miata for track event.

I must say that you have one of the best looking miatas on earth, I wish my car was that sexy. And the wheels are very nice too.

And about the ride height, I am at around 12 in the front I think, and maybe .5-1" higher in the rear, but I have plenty of travel with NB bumpstops for that height. Any lower would be impossible to use in my situation, I already clench my buttox whenever I see a rock on a canyon, or a bumpy section/pothole.

Thanks Guys For the Compliments! The I just turned 176k yesturday....the car's may D.D. and altough the paint does look good for how old it is (not sure if it's orignal or not) it's still got imperfections and love bug scars. If anyone hasn't tried it yet I'm using Meguires Color X Wax which is for Oxidized Paint; Works Wonders!

Do you track your car offen? I'll be getting an extra stock tophat tomarrow to get measurements off of and were still deciding on the best method for the shock shaft travel on the mounts. I was thinking a spherical bearing, incased around rubber or polly bushings, incased around two grade 8 washers. But we think the spherical bearing might make some noise. Simpler version of that would be the same setup minus the spherical bearing.
