    Anyone heard of Regula Tuning?

    Saw these photos and thought I'd share. Pretty interesting look, although it's not for everyone (including me).








    My apologies if it's a repost.

    Hey,

    Regula is a small tuning company based in Germany. I'm not sure if you seen the "Green Frog" R8 (also featured in some of the HF promo materials) This vehicle will have this kit installed for the Essen show early next year.

    Here is some previews I received from them earlier this year:

    Personally I'm not a big fan. It's far to aggressive for the flow and curvature of the R8.

    Thanks for the additional pictures! I'm sure some people will like that really aggressive look. Those wheels in my original set of pictures just look crazy!

    Not sure if those wheels are even feasible. There just isn't enough rubber, unless they are just rubber, no air, or the alloy lip covers a substantial part of the tyre.

    have to agree, really not feeling the love for that. the wheels are a nice novelty but just plain stupid to have on anything that goes anywhere near a real road.

    The wheels and front grill are just 2 big! makes it look over the top and novelty!

    if everything was all just a little bit smaller, it would look pretty good i think! Not a fan of the back though, looks complicated or 2 busy if that makes sense!

    Yeah, the back does look a bit peculiar.

    Like the agressive look but not a great fan of the wheels...
