ok then. your rules. i don't have a problem with them. but you have to admit, clicking on this thread to see a few pics of whored rides is somewhat dulled down when an entire page consists of basically the same picture of the same car. anyways, onto the whoring. my 1973 velosolex. let the whoring begin...sorry
and my yellow one. same year.
C'mon, can't fool me, this is the same one just plastidipped right?
It will be tough to get your caddy to look like this!!!!!
i think i could do it, i mean mine doesnt have any major rust only little tiny specs around, and interior is stupid mint. Then i would need coilovers and rims
here's a sweet roller that was taken tonight. dont often see night rollers...may need to start doing some.
I agree, that is a great shot, whomever took it certainly knows their way around a camera. My only tiny question would be are your headlights really that blue in real life or is it the editing that makes them look like 12,000K's?

thanks Sean! and no my headlights aren't that blue. they're 5K. it's just the lighting and camera settings that make it look blue. it's usually hard to capture the actual light output color on camera settings...it's always off (even brightness) and looks blue.

That is what i was pretty sure you were saying when we talked earlier about it. Glad to see you didn't switch it up!
No OEM supplier makes 12,000k bulbs. They are all cheap aftermarket bulbs that do not have very good quality control, making their salt mixtures not very accurate at all, and it is these specific salt mixtures that give you the colors. I have seen 12,000K from anywhere from 10,000k on the chart to almost the purpley/pink where ~20,000k would be. Salt mixture issues also make for differences between the bulbs themselves, a drivers side bulb could be more like 10,000k and the other be 14,000k. Other things that significantly change color is the wattage or the ballasts that you use. My old OEM phillips bulbs with 4300K color temp were 4300k at 35W but they turned into about 3800-3900k when running boosted ballasts at ~50W.
So the chart does a reasonable at best job of representing colors, either way i wouldn't trust it entirely.
