The Modding Has Begun on my Bentley Continental GT
#32
I would love to mod my car like you have and I would love a Supersport but the interior of a SS It puts me off. I love the idea of the mechanical changes and the extra few pounds in weight saving but why didn't Bentley offer a lighter cabin. My Speed is Blue with cream with wood finish. All you seems to get with the ss is Carbon Fibre and Dark leather. not everyone want that. however I really do feel the need for a ss so I keep looking just incase some one ordered a ss with a different interior specification.
I wonder if any one else feels like i do?
Perhaps modding my speed to look like a SS might have to do?? If you don't mind spilling the beans perhaps you could PM me how much it cost you to get to where you are with yours??

Fantastic job. Car looks outstanding. The rims really set off the car. I really like the fender vents. The B looks timeless.

Totally agree Sunnyside.
Wish they made speeds/supersports w/o the carbon fiber or knurled metal interiors. They're still good looking, but a little to bolt on/go fast looking for a Bentley and more at home in a 911, 588 or other real sports car for my tastes. (no offense intended)
eyceburg11,
The mods are looking great and I really like the blackout emblems/headlights.. Nicely done, I see you're a fellow new jerseyean and north side too. If I see your car around I'll know who it is.
Do you run wheel spacers or were the rims offset selected to match the body? Yours looks nicely lined up and I'm thinking of getting 25mm rear and 15mm front.

ps.. where do you mount your front plate or do you find you're not getting hassled for that?
edit... never mind, I see it now in post #31. Is that electronic or manual to flip up down?

Hi Sam.
Just a heads up about spacers/lowering.
I recently fitted 12mm front & 20mm rear. Looks good but, as my car is also lowered by 25mm, if I hit a dip in the road it sometimes causes the front tyre to rub the inner fender slightly, no damage but a little unwanted. I might put the 12mm on the rear and get a slightly thinner spacer for the front.
I could lift the ride height a little as I have adjustable links, but I like the stance.

What rear spoiler is that? I haven't seen a single one I've liked until I saw yours. Any assistance is greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
Also, did you do 35% tint on the tail lights to match the windows? Thanks
