And, I think I'd definitely go with a HAS over fixed, but I'm still a noob to lowering.

yeah the body lines of the G82 yield a bigger oem rear gap than that fo the G80...

yes the stock F82 indeed sat optically lower from factory.

Alright, aventurine people, I need your help. AR is my first choice color, but I’m stuck on interior choice. Does anyone have, or has anyone seen, an AR car with the fjord blue interior? The CA I’m working says that combination works great. I haven’t seen either in person. I’m between fjord blue and black, full leather either option. Thank you!

I see no issues with the superman build, its usually the other way around but AR and Fjord should be fine.

Im running Silverstone/Black which offsets the car well but in reality with my tint, its hard to discern both exterior and interior colors at the same time.

I say go for it.

I'm on board!

I've changed my order to AR from SBM based on this thread, can't wait to see it in person. I originally spec'd out Kaylami Orance with SBM and I'm keeping it with AR hoping it won't clash, but my guy tells me it will look good. thanks guys!

Cane, can I ask what shop installed your tint? I am on Hutchinson Island and am looking for a tint shop to ceramic tint my AR/Tartufo M4 convertible. What % did you have them install?

Are you asking me? I'm the only one from FL in this thread, I think. If so, I got mine down in Boca, DM me if you want a referral.

I find myself very drawn to this color.
it's my 2nd choice after the IOMG

looking at the choices I think the all black interior would look great with it
while looking at the configurator I could see the Fjord blue working, maybe going with the M colors theme: Red, blue, black

edit: the silverstone looks nice too!

That’s where I’m stuck. Lol. I look at it that black is a sure bet…but I’ve always had black interiors. Blue could be really sweet, or really bad. So I was hoping someone has pictures to share to convince me either way.

I was never a fan of Silverstone in the past, but the SS with the black accents looks really good, and I'm very happy with it.

I actually had Silverstone on my Portimao G80 Comp as well and really enjoyed it so when I saw it was the same set up in the AR I was pleasantly surprised.

Your call; if you love it, then go for it. But it's definitely bold, and you will likely have a harder time selling that (especially in a normal market at some point in the future).
