Took a few of mine earlier to get a comparison most on normal settings a few with camera set to vivid+warm colours (you`ll spot them by how yellow the pics are-just for effect-rest are natural)

below took with flash on.

Dasco mate close........but no cigar

Those Front calipers would look better with white subaru.

Just a thought

Top car
