Hey guys, been thinking of doing a few little things to the R8 lately but would really like an idea of what it would look like first.

Here is a picture of the car:

I know its ideally not a great picture to try photoshop but im sure alot of you have much more skill than me.

I want to paint/powdercoat the wheels black and slightly lower the front so the gaurd sits a little closer to the wheel, closer to the gap at the back.

Also I was thinking of possibly chroming the wheels too, however on a red car Im pretty confident black wheels would suit it more.

Let me know what you guys think, and anyone who can help with photoshop would also be appreciated!!

Thanks

Not photoshopped but here's a red VY GTS with black VE GTS wheels to give you an idea.

:yup: totally better, get rid of that silver, and add the black outs around the fog lights

What about colour matching with the dark grey strip already on the side skirts (inc the silver bits).
