Black car, black windows and a silver blade don't really seem to match, or is that just me?

Just don't put chrome on that car...

I can appreciate your sentiments on the car.

I originally went with all black and the car just didn't look right. It made the wheels look real small. It also has the nightrider effect going on and I just didn't feel David Hasselhoff that much

I also wanted a look similar to my Turbo where I love the look of that car very much.


I will post new pictures of the car lowered when I get it back.

The cab looks awesome! Just the silver blade doesn't seem to work on that R8... Is it your R8?

I think the R8 looks very good
the silver side blades and the silver on the wheels + the tint looks perfect for the black exterior...
Are the brake calipers painted?

great job!

I also prefer a darker blade than the body color, but given that the grille and exhaust tips have the shiny silver/chrome, I think the silver blade and silver on the wheels on this one add some consistency. Nice to see another R8 out there with the H&R springs.

Yeah I had to go with the HR springs. I will be getting the car back tommorow and will post some new pictures with the HR springs and the wheels.

Thanks,

Calipers are not painted, came that way with the car.

Man you are funny. How can I take all that time off. I would never have a business when I get back, thus you would lose a customer.

But I will live vicariously thru you on that endeavor.
