My Murci's new look for 2010,

[diablo_pete]

Dodgy first few pics, the lighting doesn't do the pearl justice.

[cronk-flakes]

Fantastic!

[Chr1sch]

Very very nice, love it all apart from the bonnet which doesn't really work IMO

Overall it's stunning!

[Grant76]

Looks fantastic Pete, better with a pearl bonnet IMO though..

Amazing car none the less!!

Nice one! Put some 30 purple pin stripes between the CF and pearl, down middle of bonnet and poss up on rear buttress area - as an idea?

People are either gonna love it or purists will dislike what you have done. Enjoy it.

what happened to the purple stripe?


Like it mate!

Haven't you had enough of my purple cars? Just preferred it without in the flesh.



Thanks to Nick Williams (NWVT) for this photo and his help with all the previous CAD stuff.

You're awake early? Still have the option to go back for stripes and pin stripes as they have been payed for. Gonna think on it. The bonnet looks great in the flesh, the textured carbon is layed at an angle, but symmetrically about the centreline and gives the impression of a fold. Wanted to be different too. If it was white it'd be like an SV scheme.

Like it Pete. You can see the "weave" on the bonnet slightly in the pictures - must look good in the flesh! Got a hint of Zonda PS there as well....

Oh yeah, what an accident Was actually inspired by the cinque, but didn't have the purple stripe intended.

Carbon weave looks the dogs
And that reg really sets the car off nicely.

Thanks. Over exposed by you can see the effect a bit here

Like it, just agree with others, I think it would better with a white bonnet.

I saw your Lambo at the ecurie25 Hypercar evening last year. I was not too keen on the purple, but am loving this colour combo. It looks fantastic!

Cheers,

Having done the photoshopping, this looked better as the back of the car would look too different from the front with a white bonnet. Plus I wanted something a bit different from the norm. Would be better if the murci bonnet tappered the other way though. The area behind the front plate should also be carbon, and will get done as the drawings were mis-read.

Good thing is, a white bonnet is only a sheet of plastic away for a different look! Intend to change the look from time to time anyway. At least only half the car has to be changed at a time with this scheme.

You too! Chocolate! Gonna have to steal it from my boys I think. Not an easy task. I can hear the theme from Mission Impossible right now.

Great looking car. Did it start off in white, or is that a white wrap? Was the carbon wrap expensive?

Hi,
The car is pearlescent purple. The wrap is a new product that is effectively a flip paint. Areas turn light purple/ light green etc in light, but is white. The 1st picture taken in daylight shows this a bit.
The carbon and pearl white is more pricey. The carbon used is the textured one that gives the correct shimmer and light changing effect. The photos don't do it justice really. The door shuts are carbon too.
