fox 20_12, That is one of the best looking 931 I've seen, very beautiful and well kept.
Nice shinny rims edredas. It's hard to see them, but did you have them repainted?

Martijnus, I like the front valance, do you know who makes it/where you got it?

Flosho, nicely executed action shots! Not sure if it was your intent, but there appears to be a color shift in those photos, I'm wondering if you could clean that up by adjusting your white balance setting? But nicely executed nonetheless!

Yup, that was taken not long after they were sprayed, they've since faded to look like they should...
But, here's a better pic of them the taken that same day...

Those shots were actually taken on different nights in different locations. The first one was around 8ish, the second two were much later (from last night) so that's why there are color differences. I was mostly testing the rig.
I have a hard time right now shooting earlier in the evening because I don't have any filters(ND filter) that would allow me to keep the shutter open longer and not blow out the picture.

Understood, but they seem to have a yellow shift. If your camera has an option for custom white balance, what you should do is use a blank sheet of laser paper every time you shoot at night to recalibrate the white balance. You will probably also need to do this on the same night for different location because different overhead lights will cause bad color shifts, and you want to compensate for that.

It's a Zender front valance. I like it a lot too
I guess the only way you can get one is by buying it second hand, or create a time machine to be able to buy it new.
Mine has some damage I'd like to fix someday..
