Need opinions on which colour to wrap my R8!!!!

[R8 geeza]

Hey guys.

New member and my first post so i thought i'd start by asking peoples opinions on car wraps.

I've got my audi r8 but i now want to change the colour but im not too sure on what to get. I was thinking gloss pearlescent white or matt black or dark matt grey.

I would be grateful if anyone had any suggestions on colours as i want to get this done soon.

below is the current pic of the r8 as it is in red!

Cheers Guys

Leave it red. What is people's obsession with shades of white to black these days?!

Instead or a wrap get some sticky tyres and several truck loads of fuel and head to a track.

Wrap it like a Gallardo.

Or if that can't be done, sell it and get a Gallardo.

nice car but you may only get a few helpful posts as lots of people dont really like wraps on here but i think a grey wrap could look quite cool.

edit: this is the thread you want

Isn't the pic of a TT? /confused.

Leave it, but consider a debadge, black or anthracite wheels, swap chrome 'rings' for black on rump and front. Rings can be found on EBay. Hmmm not sure whether the filler cap can be replaced though.

Ha ha ha.

I think I love you!

If it's so important to you to have the right colour, might it cost you less to sell the red R8 and buy one in the colour you want?

I'm not just including the cost of the wrap here- can bits under the wrap degrade if you're unfortunate? It could work out rather expensive to respray bits of the red underneath...

Some drivel....

Right then, who is going to be the first to say the "T" word then?

[rb5er]

It looks odd with the sideblades the same colour as the rest of the car. Probably just because its unusual.

Thanks for the replies.

Im pretty sure it's an r8 unless i've been mistaken and been driving it around for the past 8 months thinking its a r8 lol.

As for the wraps and paintwork i can get a 4 year guarantee on there so im sure the paintwork will be ok as its not been resprayed or anything. Also the wrap will look after the paintwork if i ever do decide to take it off.

Definately thinking bout getting black wheels tho.

[Digger]

Addition of blades?

[Y282]

Id get the blades contrasted, high laquered carbon maybe?

Leave it unwrapped though, youll make a very expensive car look very cheap.

[wackojacko]

Matt grey with Matt black wheels and matt black side burns (intake plates next to the door) or the side bruns in Carbon would looks awesome !

Ming blue (Audi colour) wrap, (BMW)anthracite wheels and side panels.

Thinking of making it similar to the anderson germany V10 racing addition
