    My New Custom R8 GT ... Custom Paint we call - Bad A$$ Tomato :)

    First Post ... So I just finished customizing my New R8 GT. I had the work done at a custom shop called Kindig-it-Design (http://www.kindigit.com/). They did a custom better than factory paint job in a color we like to call Bad A$$ Tomato. I have Custom Carbon Fiber Look Wheels to match my Carbon Fiber Blades and Wing on my R8 GT. I also got a new GT Stasis Super Charger put in this beast and now have nearly 780 HP ... and yeah it is as crazy as one might imagine. Also I should mention that Kindig-it-Design in SLC Utah built a custom Grill for me (not a big fan of the stock version) ... it turned out killer (so clean).

    Let me know what you think of my custom R8 GT ...

    Cheers, Ken

    JUST FABULOUS!!

    Nothing I'd do differently. Colour choice is adventurous, but it works!

    I've contacted your custom shop to inquire about the front grill. Let's see if they would do another one for my car...

    Wow! What color was the car originally? I'm guessing you have no concern of the possibility of the color change to hurt the value of the car in the long run? Considering it is a numbered and very rare car...

    No I did it because I love the car. I honestly do not think it would hurt the value as we did it just like factory (everything was stripped down) ...
