Re: FJ with visor
I reckon your ute looks good with it Mick, but need a shot without the visor.

It was chopped twenty years ago and engineered by previous owner, I've had it a few years now and redone the engine,suspension,brakes wheels etc. few marks on the paint but considering how long ago it was chopped/painted it still presents pretty well

At least I don't have to drill holes into the ute to mount it
As usual I can't just leave things be

Re: FJ with visor
the close up pick i think it looks good but the further back pick showing the whole car i don't particularly like it
looks to be sitting too far up the roof or something
if yor leaving it on as a trial a trick i use is put the car where you can see it when you walk out the door or out a window and then think about how you feel every time you first see it

Re: FJ with visor
Yep you are right I looked at it tonight after work and it sits too high, so I played about with it so it sits lower ( I'll take another picture tomorrow)Mick wrote:the close up pick i think it looks good but the further back pick showing the whole car i don't particularly like itlooks to be sitting too far up the roof or something

I sort of do what you suggested about looking at the car after any changes, I take a picture and put it up as the screen saver on my computer at work and at home

FJ visor Mk2
Here I go again, mounted a bit lower and it finally stopped raining so I could get it out of the shed to step back and look, still not polished/detailed yet as I'm still not sure
Like I said before at least I don't have to drill holes into the body to mount it so if it comes off and stays off there will be no damage to repair
