So this was actually someone else's build and the only thing missing I would have got would have been the exterior carbon pack. So now I am making up for it lol. The front lip is the authentic M performance lip. It will cost a pretty penny but it completes the OEM+ look for me. The rear deck lid is a R44 performance CS style pre-preg carbon lip. Its not aggressive but again gives me the OEM+ look. Quote:
I have on order the r44 rear OEM+ diffuser in carbon which is priced at 1/3 of the BMW one. Quality is great and weave is the same as the factory pieces. I also plan on getting the r44 carbon inlets when they release them. They look fantastic over the stock ones especially if you dont have any in the first place. |

I dont know how good my phone is vs an Iphone in capturing naked pics but I got up real early today and lost beauty sleep to take this for you ahahahhaha. If you have seen me, you would realize how important that is. Backed this out, took the pic, back to sleep LOL - obviously no sun yet and my car is rather dirty and as I had pointed out (not as eloquently or factually as ATX_G80) the car changes its skin in lighting. Its much more purple or towards that region in color without light.

Let me ask this question, Between post 156 and 157 of this blue. Which one is more of a true state of this color?

Vic is right. It is both. I will say tho that you are correct in saying it has a purple hue to it. That hue is apparent at all times and in different lighting conditions. Its fantastic IMO.

If you go with the orange interior you might want to switch calipers to blue to avoid an orange/red clash. If you go with red interior I think red calipers work great. I'm going with orange interior and then painting my calipers orange as soon as I get the car.

I love the additional luxury that full leather brings but what helped my decision to not get it is that I didn't really like the orange leather on the lower part of the dash. I would've preferred if it came in all black leather so that it's better quality & luxury without the extra color. Maybe it's just me!

Has anyone tried a stealth wrap on Portimao yet? Curious how closely it compares for FPB. Seems like the smarter choice given you'd like want a full wrap on FPB anyway?
Edit: not sure I'd want to lose the many hues in various lighting though.

Stopped by dealership for the complimentary bath . . . then took some pics in the later afternoon shadows.
TRIED to obtain some photo angles outside what we typically encounter online. . . as per recent post above, I am not a photographer. Just a man with an iPhone. ///AVM Last edited by ///AVM; 09-03-2021 at 06:15 PM.. |

So I just took this now at 1025 pdt and the lighting is bit Eastern still but you can clearly see (no filters or adjustments) of how PB is in the sun and then with non direct sun. The car does have nice coat of dust on it too.... This at 1022pdt

Love your setup BTW. Car looks great with drop. Are you planning on doing wheels also, or just stick with factory? As an aside, wish I could have an R8 available to drive, probably my favorite all around car right now. |
