    Piano Black front below headlights and rear

    How do I get those piano black? Mine are a matte finish at the moment. I just saw a 2011 and they were all piano black finishes both were v10 and mine was v8. Is there a part I can buy and switch out for back and front?

    Thanks

    you can get the black lid in the front off of a V10, but the rear diff won't fit, the V10 has a different bumper.

    Tet Motorsports do a set in carbon fibre for the V8. Problem solved.

    The R8 V10 grilles up front are the way to do that front in piano. The rear V10 bumper is needed to get the full piano effect with the rear grilles/louvers and the center section.

    So you can have V10 side gills on a v8 front bumper without changing the bumper?

    Yes, V10 front bumper grilles fit the V8 bumper. You have to trim some tabs, but very minor modification, other than that it's bolt-on.
