I saw those seats when all us Mexican's were parked up before our last scramble for the boarder...
The colour was spot on, I was dubious of the photos but peering into the car they just looked so right. Mucho wanto.

ASBO looks great, and sounds even better. The buckets are my favourite touch, and the wheels and the noise! I wasn't keen on the debadged look at first, but when you see it on ASBO and Dave's R8 in the flesh, it works really well and i can see why you guys chose to de badge it.

Dave, have you got a name for your R8? :thumbs:

Haha !
You know it looks good mate, well executed :thumbs:
Although it still looks like theres something missing without the rings. What about colour coding them?

...along with the obligatory drop on 20's :thumb:

20"s only ok if 1) You don't care about running cr4p tyres and 2) you don't care about the cars handling.

Your C6 wouldn't see which way a std R8 V8 went on track I'm afraid.

Looks Beautiful, love the rim's :) But not to sure on the vinyl wrapped side blades, (were they already in genuine carbon fiber)? Glad your changing the exhaust, as mentioned at the Midlands meet ;) Nice job mate
