ASBO has a makeover

briefly flirted with the idea of selling him .... heck even agreed a deal to p/x with a B7 !!!

but couldnt do it ... an R8 is just too special, and whilst I can still afford to keep it, I will !

so, I decided it needed some pimping up!

had a day off last monday and whilst the Boiler Engineer was servicing my boiler I managed to spend a fortune !!


:biggrin3:

Can I just say that ebay.de is a GOLD MINE

:notworthy:


Managed to source 2 items that are UBER rare and will really make ASBO exclusive.

first up.

OEM R8 Rotor wheels .... these are not currently available to order on an R8. I have seen them on the config for a brief period, but no longer on it. So there are literally just a handful of R8's in the country (world?!) running these wheels

These were used but mint, no chips, scratches or scuffs at all ..

Tyres - brand new Conti's to the rear ... Pzero's with 6mm up front

Lets just say I got them for a good price ;-)

They landed this morning and then had them fit at lunch

Great wheel shop in Milton Keynes .... Atomic Wheels

They are a huge alloy wheel seller, just opened http://www.buyalloywheels.co.uk/

amazing service ... they actually brought my old wheels to my place of work then gave me a lift back to the workshop to pick up ASBO

Anyway ... just a sneaky peak for now ... as ASBO is getting a full clean on the weekend in prep for the Ring trip

:jump:

I foooooooking am OVER THE MOON .... they are stunning and really make the car special IMO

the rear dish is to die for

even the new tyres feel better !





next up


OEM R8 Buckets being fit on Weds eve ...

update to follow

Don't like it so didn't mention it! Same goes for the stickers!
