    contrast stitching and carbon fiber interior inlays?

    Looking at R8 Spyder 5.2 quattro in ice silver with black roof and black enhanced leather interior. Is contrast stitching (titanium) AND carbon fiber inlays too much or do they go well together ?

    No pics. Am getting ready to place the order. Have not found any pics of both after searching on line. Don't know if it is overkill or not?

    Saw a prior post of ibis white vs silver on R8 coupe!! Have seen pics of both exterior colors on the Spyder. The metallic silver looks richer. Audi has done a great job with their metallic paints. Currently have an RS4 in Daytona Pearl grey which is 3 yrs old and has held up well. Really pops. But darker colors on Spyder don't look as good, makes car look smaller. So leaning towards silver vs white on Spyder.

    Lots of white Spyders running around. Do something different.

    That's not even close to being overdone. Very tasteful, indeed! Go for it!
