    Re: My R8 On Water

    that's really cool. it looks like water to me

    just looks kinda unreal/studio-y because of the dark background. but check the vertical pic...there are trees in the reflection...hmmm

    if you do the same thing with a longer exposure (20-30 secs with a GND filter) it makes the water turn syrupy smoothe, and eliminates those ripples. (unless you wanted them)

    Looks very good!

    Do you have the shots w/o the black background? I would like to see them with the original trees, etc.

    Dang, the top pic would've been awesome for the calendar. Do you have a high resolution version of the top pic? I want to make it my wallpaper.

    The dealer had it removed to do full ventureshield installation of the hood. I like the fact people are confused when seeing it from their rearview.

    Re: My R8 On Water

    Always appreciate it when the R8 owners post up pics, especially really nice ones like those. Welcome to the forums.

    Normally I don't like debading but on the hood of the R8 that actually came out looking really slick.

    P.S. That's not your DD is it? If not, can you post any pics of your DD? I'll bet that's a hot car too.

    Re: My R8 On Water

    ^^I rotate between my DD cars. But have been driving the R8 more whenever possible.
    The silver Pcar was traded-in for the R8.

    Love the color combo on the R8, my favorite.
    Now all you need is some carbon wheels to finish the looks.
    This is another R8 we did not to long ago, I can only picture something like this in yours

    Thanks but I 'd prefer the real CF wheels Dymag to save more weights.

    Agreed but a set of full CF wheels won't go under $20K if they are true CF construction. With those $13K-$14K difference I bet you can do a few other upgrades to make up for the weight difference. Just my opinion

    Actually I was quoted $9K for the 19" Dymag which are the only true CF wheels on the market for the R8. They weights 14lbs each. To me reducing the unsprung weights is more important than sprungs.

    The question should be who's better looking and classier.
