Here are article -Platinum Motorsports Shows off a Matte Grey Carbon Fiber Range Rover

Everyone's favorite Armenian car customizers released photos of one of their latest projects... the "newly redesigned" 2013 Range Rover. But what Platinum Motorsports did was dip the Range in Matte Grey PAINT, Carbon fiber the grille kit, and a red cross stitch trimmed interior. I'm sure you know that the picture above is the "before" shot. Now let's see the after shots... P.S. Platinum Motorsports doesn't wrap their cars... See. But the best thing that Platinum Motorsport has done... is hired Jake Janisse. I have no idea who he is or what he looks like, but the way he captures the customization process and the post-customization is great. Just cause everyone has a camera phone that has 8+ megapixels and instagram, doesn't mean they know what composition means.

Today's shot of the day comes from MC Customs out of Miami. Although there are no cars in the photo, but technically, I'm still on topic because the owner of a customization shop is in the photo. You know I'll find a way to get Robinson Cano on here. But in case you didn't appreciate my moment, my second favorite pic comes from Rockstarr Motorsports... And you know I love a blacked out vehicle, even though that body kit is a little horrendous. Body kits and X5s... Well....

Here are article -Ultimate Auto Shows off a Ford Super Duty truck

Personally, I'm not a fan of pickup trucks. But, it's not about me. Orlando's finest, Ultimate Auto , released shots of a Ford Super Duty. According to UA, they added an 8" Fabtech lift with Dirt Logic shocks. 22" Fuel wheels and 37" Falken tires make good use of the extra clearence. They also added an Escort 9500ci radar/detector/ laser diffuser system and a custom vehicle wouldn't be anything without sound. To round out the customizations, UA added a JL audio sound system.

So today's Instagram shot of the day is courtesy of Asanti Wheels. Below is a shot of the DA173 wheel. The design itself is referred to as 173, but prefix is something different.  Asanti has three prefixes when it comes to this wheel. The AF prefix refers to their standard series. CX refers to their concave series, and the DA *points up* refers to their deep axis series. The 173 is available in sizes 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, and 32s.

Here are article -Branded Customs creates a Chrome Dodge Challenger

... And the chrome trend continues. Garland's favorite,  Branded Customs , released photos of a Dodge Challenger that's completely chromed out.  Aside from the body of the car, I also see some deeeeeeep lipped Asanti wheels and Oracle lights, smoked out taillights and I believe that's an Asanti grille as well.  P.S. Another photography tip, avoid photographing outside when the sun is overhead. That's typically around 1-4 pm. You avoid sun spots. But if you have to photograph, angle the subject to where the sun can be used as a fill light to fill in shadows. Yes you'll have to move the car a few times, but moving a car is much easier than spending hours, sitting in front of a computer on Photoshop. Follow this tip, ESPECIALLY with a chrome car. Sorry, I've just photographed a couple photos in my life. Just a couple... million.
