    Your thoughts on the New R8 Silver-Rear R8 look?

    The R8 rear definitely seems to have a silver look although the R8 Revealed Video back in July IMO clearly shows a red spyder V10 with a black rear fascia. What are your thoughts on this silver look if the R8 does indeed now come with that color fascia? I had a silver Factory grille on the front of my S4 and I immediately replaced it with the ECS Black grille, which IMO Look 100 Times nicer on a on a red, white or Yellow car

    I might as well be the first to say it....I have no idea what you're talking about.

    Sorry.

    You're welcome.

    Also, check out the below thread. There you will find photos and videos of the facelifted V8, V10, and V10 Plus showing you exactly how each will look. And you'll even see a red V10 Spyder with the rear gloss back fascia.

    I think that is the lighting. It appears matte black.



    What a crappy detail job. Swirls galore!

    I have seen most of those. I guess I kinda just "freaked" out when I saw the silver fascia on my favorite color.
