Morning guys, I'm also a new owner to a R8.
Iv had her since October and been a member of another forum which gives very good advice and I'm certain this one will be the same.
Mods are walkinshaw power pack with supercar exhaust.
20" wheels, iv also had windows tinted and had clutch fluid changed.
I'm also going to AAS in Newcastle on the 9th of February to get xpipe done and gear box and diff oil changed.

And iv also got rid of vauxhall badges and put my own on.
Will put pics on very soon.

Monkfish are the main UK dealer for Pedders suspension, that is what is on my R8 and was also fitted to my old Monaro, def a very good mod.
