Proud new owner of my first legitimate DSLR... Got some more work related equipment on the way, but if anyone wants to shoot photo/video of their cars or whatever else, LMK!

Re: Western Off Topic
I'm looking to get my car wrapped in the near future...any suggestions on where to go? I just know I don't have the patience to do it myself.

I don't even think it's a matter of patience. It's something anyone can probably do, but can they do it flawless? I doubt I could.
Have you thought about talking to Jeff @ SS again?

Re: Western Off Topic
If you're going for a solid color wrap,I'd consult whoever you decide on about where seams are going to be. I was going to wrap my FD, but after a lot of research I found that no material is capable of the stretching and matching contours a modern car would require, so you will have seams on the bumpers and possibly other unusually shaped areas of the car. With a graphic wrap it's easy to overlook this, but a solid color will show these, regardless of how well it's done.

I'd Recommend Longwood Signworks on Rocky Mount. JP has been wrapping vehicles longer than anybody in this area.
